The lobby of the Motion Picture Association theatre in Washington D.C. is also used as a gathering place before film screenings. Acoustics was therefore a major concern for the Gensler architectural firm. Clipso was able to meet their requirements by providing an elegant ceiling with real acoustic performance combined with versatile integrated lighting.

To create this three-dimensional ceiling, Clipso engineers selected a 60 mm thick aluminium profile, which was cut and bent to size and then assembled into 362 Clipso So Aero frames using Clipso's specific fastening system. This system also meets one of the architects' requirements, which was to be able to access the plenum easily and quickly if necessary.
