The project

Indoor courts under a curved timber-faced ceiling, with slatted timber walls, a members' lounge and a reception lined in curved timber.

The challenge
High reverberation times made communication and teaching difficult.
The solution
Class A acoustic absorbing panels and oak slat panels, designed to reduce echo while keeping the timber look of the building.

Reverberation time reported for the hall

2.8 s1.0 s (from 2.8 s to 1.0 s)
