What is an acoustic artwork and how does it work?
Acoustic artworks, also known as sound-absorbing art, are a clever combination of design and functionality. They are designed to reduce reverberation and echo in spaces while simultaneously creating visually appealing, sound-absorbing wall art. This not only adds ambiance to an interior but also enhances the comfort and experience of the space.
For which rooms are sound-absorbing artworks suitable?
These artworks are versatile and can be used in various environments:
- Living rooms, kitchens and open plan living areas
- Office and meeting rooms
- Restaurants, cafes and hotels
- Practices, showrooms and reception areas
In fact, any space with hard surfaces, such as concrete, glass or wood, benefits from sound-absorbing art.
How does an acoustic artwork work?
An acoustic artwork consists of a special canvas and a sound-absorbing felt. When sound waves strike the acoustic canvas artwork, they are absorbed and converted into minimal energy, reducing reflections and echoes. The effectiveness is expressed as the NRC value (Noise Reduction Coefficient). The higher the value, the more sound is absorbed. This allows you to determine exactly which artwork is suitable for your space. Our acoustic felt has an NRC value of 0.75, meaning it absorbs 75% of sound waves.
The benefits of acoustic wall decoration
The use of acoustic artworks offers several advantages:
- Reduces reverberation and echo in the room
- Improves speech intelligibility
- Creates a calmer, more comfortable environment
- Combines functionality with aesthetics
- Possibility of customization in size, color and appearance
How much acoustic wall art do you need?
The number of artworks depends on the size and function of the room. One large artwork can make a noticeable difference in an average living room or office. For larger, open, or noisy spaces, a combination of several artworks may be necessary. Placement is also important: strategic locations such as opposite windows, behind sofas, or next to hard surfaces maximize the effect. For a noticeable effect, we recommend that 20–30% of the floor space be equipped with sound-absorbing elements. While curtains and rugs also contribute, our acoustic artworks provide the most effective sound insulation, a perfect combination of design and functionality.
Acoustic solutions with art on the wall
With artworks on acoustic canvas, sound absorption becomes not only functional but also an integral part of the interior design. You create an environment where comfort and style go hand in hand. This makes acoustics visible, tangible, and above all, pleasant, whether at home, in the office, or in a restaurant.
