Acoustic solutions by space

Every room has a job. A classroom needs speech to be heard; a restaurant needs conversation to stay comfortable; a sports hall needs energy without the roar. Choose your space to see what usually works and where we have done it.

Choose your space

Open-plan, meeting rooms, receptions

Offices

Echo and background noise add to fatigue.

Classrooms, halls, sports halls

Schools

Hard rooms make teachers hard to hear.

Restaurants, bars, cafés, receptions

Hospitality

Clear, controlled sound makes conversation easy.

Sports halls, pools, indoor courts

Sports and leisure

Hard surfaces and high ceilings make big rooms echo.

What we look at in every room

  • Room purpose

    Speech, music or activity each need a different acoustic target.

  • Surface materials

    Hard finishes reflect sound; soft ones absorb it.

  • Ceiling height and shape

    Large or irregular spaces need more treatment.

  • Furnishings and fit-out

    Layout and materials change how sound behaves.

  • Regulation and comfort

    Meet the standard, and make the room pleasant to use.

How we help

Other spaces

We also advise on healthcare, where noise control supports calm environments, and public buildings, where good acoustics make announcements clearer. Tell us about your space.
