Autex Acoustics: Timeless neutrals for focused learning spaces

Focused learning environments begin with calm, considered colour

Creating education spaces that feel welcoming, adaptable, and built to last starts with thoughtful material choices. That’s why Autex Acoustics® has introduced two new neutral colours—Colosseum and Rushmore—to their Cube™ and Cube‑derived product ranges.

Designed to support learning without distraction, these new tones bring a sense of calm, balance, and longevity to classrooms, libraries, and shared spaces where students and educators spend so much of their day.

Colosseum is a soft, light greige with a refined, stone‑like quality—warm, grounded, and quietly reassuring.

Rushmore is a clean light grey with a gentle mottled texture, offering clarity and lightness without feeling stark.

Both colours provide designers and educators with greater flexibility when planning cohesive learning environments. Explore the full Autex Acoustics colour range here. 

Subtle texture that works effectively in busy school spaces

What continues to resonate strongly with designers and school planners is the subtle marled texture of both colours. From a distance, they read as neutral and composed; up close, they reveal depth, tactility, and softness.

Importantly for education settings, this texture is also practical. It helps disguise day‑to‑day wear and minor marks in high‑traffic areas such as corridors, classrooms, and breakout spaces—supporting long‑term performance without the need for strong patterning that may date over time.
