A SOUND WAY TO BUILD OR RENOVATE

Sound has a big impact on our level of comfort, and getting the right balance requires careful thought about how rooms will be used.

The physical characteristics of a building influence sound. Solid surfaces reflect sound, and elements such as flooring, pipes and radiators can transfer it from room to room. While the acoustics of a space can be altered, there are many factors to consider and when planning a construction or renovation project, it is essential to consider acoustics form the outset.

Good to keep in mind:

  • Consider how sound travels - identify and address all potential sources of room-to-room sound transmissions
  • Evaluate the requirements of each room according to its purpose, and bear in mind the needs of surrounding spaces
  • Check local regulation for different building types
