Noise Control
Acoustics + Vibration
Eliminate Unwanted Noise
A well-designed soundscape can provide purpose and place, but unwanted noise can cause stress and have a negative impact on occupant health and well-being. Noise can also disrupt learning, collaboration, and communication. Likewise, noise can impact sensitive building uses such as media production, audio capture, conferencing, scientific research, vivariums, and specialty manufacturing.
Related Considerations:
Current trends in facility design and planning have led to a proliferation of multiuse facilities to promote occupant engagement and encourage collaboration between different user groups. There is also a desire to co-locate an ever-growing list of flexible amenity spaces into buildings to support occupant health and wellness. These well-intended shifts in architectural programming regularly lead to disruptions among quiet and noisy spaces. Likewise, modern facilities are subject to noise from building systems, specialty equipment, environmental sources, and other unique applications. Identifying these noise sources as early as possible often allows projects to avoid complicated and expensive noise control solutions.
Auxia Design helps stakeholders navigate the layout and construction of multiuse facilities to provide healthful flexible environments that serve a variety of users and functions.
