Structural ceiling profile in steel by Christophe Gevers from the Générale de Banque (various lengths) - Only available in our physical shop

These ceiling elements were salvaged from the cafeteria of the Générale de Banque in Brussels. The cafeteria was designed by Christophe Gevers between 1976 and 1978 as part of a large-scale commission covering 2,700 square meters on the second floor of the company's Montagne du Parc headquarters.

These steel elements were used to support an integrated ceiling system in oak plywood that distributed air conditioning airflow and supported suspended lighting. Originally developed for the Passage 44 auditorium in 1976, this ceiling solution in molded wood was invented by Gevers as a sculptural and acoustic response to technical constraints that didn’t allow for classical acoustic panels.  

This product consists of a steel profile to which six black lacquered steel plates are attached and can pivot on their axis. 

Available in various lengths (ranging from 180 to 280 cm) and only in our physical shop.

Used condition. There are some strong traces of rust, paint residues, scratches or chips (see images). Very dusty, needs to be cleaned. Ceiling mounting system is not included. We recommend that customers come to our shop to check items before buying them.
