Interior space acoustics
The acoustic characteristics of a room can work against the intended use of that space: in the workplace--particularly modern open offices--noise levels and reduced privacy induce stress and impair performance; an unsuitable acoustic environment in a classroom or meeting room reduces intelligibility undermining the intended purpose of the space. The delights of excellent food in good company are spoiled if the levels of ambient chatter and clashing dishes are too high.
Although there is an increasing awareness of the need to factor acoustic characteristics in the planning and design of spaces, all too few are built with this need in mind. Fortunately, thanks to advancements in research and materials, there are now attractive cost effective solutions for tailoring existing acoustic spaces to the needs of their users without resorting to structural alterations or impeding the functionality of modern heating and cooling systems.
Solutions
Intelligent solutions come in many shapes, sizes, textures and materials; they can be easily removed and relocated if required and significant results are achievable for a relatively small outlay.
