FOR THE DOUBTERS: PHOTOSHOP SERVICE

Many offices are designed with a focus on light, openness, and design. However, materials such as glass, concrete, and smooth walls amplify sound.

Meeting rooms are often sterilely furnished with hard tables, glass walls, and smooth ceilings. This creates reverberation, causing voices to distort and conversations to consume more energy than necessary.

Many offices have a sleek visual design, but are acoustically unbalanced. Sound reflects off hard surfaces such as glass, concrete, and smooth walls.

Noise has a major influence on how people work. In offices with poor acoustics, employees experience stress, loss of concentration, and fatigue more quickly.

In many modern office environments, noise is an underestimated problem. Hard materials such as glass, concrete, and smooth walls cause sound waves to be reflected.
