To take full advantage of the light fixtures within the office space and the natural light that streams in through the large windows lining the perimeter of the office, WRI's facility uses ceiling tiles by Armstrong World Industries.

Not only are these tiles created with 79 percent recycled industrial waste and post-consumer recycled paper, they exhibit high light reflectance, returning up to 89 percent of ambient light to occupants. This increases effective lighting levels, reducing light fixturing costs and energy consumption. High light reflectance ceiling tiles also reduce eyestrain, helping to create more effective workspaces.

The ceiling tiles are highly durable and washable, have excellent acoustical performance, and are finished with low-volatile organic compound water-based paint.
