Motorway townhall space with large AV display

Motorway

A future-ready AV environment enabling seamless hybrid working and collaboration across Motorway’s fast-growing headquarters.

Why MVS was brought in

Motorway is a huge success story and fast-growing online company. Part of that success is due to the flexible, hybrid working environment and Motorway wanted to provide easy-to-use, flexible and familiar AV solutions.

MVS Audio Visual was asked to help Motorway to define an AV / VC strategy and standardise equipment to accommodate future growth.

Introduction

The success of Motorway led to a requirement for a new head office that reflected the Motorway brand and provided for the needs of modern hybrid meetings, from small team collaborations to all hands meetings in a town hall environment.

A disused car park just off Oxford Street provided a highly appropriate blank canvas and AV was a key requirement.

Townhall

The Town Hall area is a multi-function space for social functions, events and all-hands meetings, designed to reliably support both in-room and remote participants.

The enterprise-grade technology is scalable and future-proof. Using AVoIP, the space features a 98” LG Commercial Signage Display, Logitech Rally conference camera, Bose pendant speakers and Sennheiser SpeechLine microphones, with room control via Q-SYS.

A background music system includes a Dante wall plate with Bluetooth connectivity and a Sonos Port.

Boardroom

The boardroom is a long, narrow room with Crittall windows, solid flooring, brick and concrete walls and an open ceiling — a classic acoustic challenge.

Soft seating, carpet and acoustic lighting improve sound quality. Dual LG Commercial Pro displays with a Logitech TAP large-room Zoom solution allow Motorway to share content and see participants clearly, while a third Rally Mic Pod ensures everyone can be heard.

What Motorway can do now

Motorway’s AV installation means that they can provide for every meeting scenario, from informal huddle session, to formal board meetings and all company meetings. And when a business was looking for an AV Integrator recommendation, Motorway didn’t hesitate.
