In the modern landscape of workplaces, the significance of acoustics cannot be overlooked. As workplaces evolve, so too do the demands placed upon them. The acoustic quality of a workplace plays a fundamental role in the well-being, productivity, and satisfaction of its employees.
However, despite its importance, the world of acoustics often remains shrouded in misunderstanding and myth. In this new guide, we take a deep dive into the various measurements concerning acoustics in the workplace, shedding light on their significance and practical implications, and explore the science behind the measurements, demystifying jargon and clarifying concepts. Providing practical guidance on what to look for when evaluating the acoustic performance of workplace solutions, download the guide now!
"Sound affects us psychologically, cognitively and behaviourally, even though we're not aware of it." - Julian Treasure, CEO, The Sound Agency
"Noisy offices are lowering productivity, with 60% of office workers unable to concentrate and delivering poor quality work due to loud workspaces." - Oscar Acoustics
The Acoustics Guide explains the importance of workplace acoustics and the effect that they have on wellbeing, functional privacy, productivity and accessibility. Industry specific jargon is unpacked and explained, with insights into aspects of the science of sound, such as logarithmic scales and DSA measurements. The guide can also function as a comprehensive tool to understand acoustic measurements and the standards used in workplace furniture and fittings, presenting a newly emerging methodology which improves the reliability of acoustic comparisons.
The guide also presents Spacestor's acoustic solutions, and the function that each family has in controlling noise in the workplace and providing zones that are acoustically suited to everyone and every task. Looking ahead, we continue on our mission to help curate inspiring workplaces, that prioritize acoustic comfort and inclusivity in their design. By doing so, we can create environments where all individuals can thrive and excel.
