Creating a sound experience

Well-designed spaces begin and end with the comfort of their users—acoustics are central to how we experience any environment.?Our acousticians are part of a globally connected team creating soundscapes that support design visions and project programmes, keeping people at the core of everything we do.

At a masterplan and strategic site level, noise and vibration influence how whole communities are developed to preserve healthy environments. We invest in technology and software to enhance our clients’ understanding of the designed environment, allowing them to hear the effect of a variety of material choices on noise transferring from outside to inside, or from one room to another room. Through digital environmental acoustic modelling, we accurately predict sound propagation from a variety of sound sources including road, rail, aircraft, industrial processes and commercial activities in an environmental setting.

At all stages of a project, we focus on creating places for people to thrive, and spaces to relax, while mitigating the impact of noise from ongoing construction as each phase of a development emerges.
