Role: Acoustic engineer
“Even well-tested solutions can present unforeseen challenges. Attention to detail is critical”
Work & Approach
Focused on acoustically critical spaces: music room, event hall, auditoriums, and meeting rooms. Project stakeholders addressed the building’s acoustic details comprehensively, including workspaces, open-plan offices, and support areas.
The creative concept aimed to deliver a modern, functional office that meets contemporary quality standards and spatial usage practices, giving me a clearly defined task.
Breakthroughs
Designing the music room and event hall required close collaboration with the interior architects. For example, developing a custom structure behind the large screen in the event hall was complex, but the end result justified the effort. Unexpected shrinkage of the amount of the glued parquet added some challenges.
Takeaways
Collaboration throughout the design phase was highly effective and pragmatic. Attention to small details is critical, and even well-tested solutions can present unforeseen challenges.
Facts
During the operation, I think at least 2 tons of milk was consumed
Custom structures behind the large screen in the event hall were complex, yet by project completion, the office met expectations or even moreso
Design solutions drew on international experience from innovative companies, banks, law firms, and startups
