• Design (as opposed to consulting) encompasses all aspects and services as related to a project.
  • This is our most comprehensive offering. It can include space planning, room acoustics, isolation, mechanical noise control and design of technical systems.
  • Provides location-specific details and includes the needed complex acoustical and mechanical calculations to specify exact treatment models, types and quantities.
  • Our involvement is continuous (as opposed to a single report) throughout the design and construction phases for a new or facility under renovation.

 

 

  • Consulting (as opposed to design) typically addresses a specific problem or problems of an existing facility.
  • The approach offers a set of practical schematic recommendations.
  • The level of detail provided is adequate to understand the issues and basic costs, but does not include construction-level detail.
  • Includes follow up correspondence as needed, our goal is to be sure this process is helpful.

 

 

  • Offers a list of issues identified and general direction for improvement (if needed) in a concise document.
  • Can serve as the basis for further involvement and discussion (for example, helping the team to understand the rough order of magnitude of a proposed design concept)
  • May be used for general review of existing design (by others) with minimal investment
  • Lowest cost and ‘risk’; we will tell you if no serious issues exist!

 

 

  • We work to properly address sound critical concerns of both new or existing facilities by addressing room acoustics, isolation and mechanical noise control issues.

 

 

  • Performance Sound Systems, Recording Systems, AV (i.e Corporate, Conference), Lighting and Technical Infrastructure; Can be offered with or separately from acoustical services.

 

 

  • Acoustics is fundamental to the architecture. Space Planning addressed layout and functional concerns can resulting in optimal results at preferred pricing. Often it is how the materials or ideas are used, It’s not always about specialty materials.
