Feel more confident in your next client meeting with the owner. You’ll be equipped with good design principles and what acoustic data is important to make informed recommendations. Lighting and acoustics relate to 2 of the 5 senses evoking strong subjective responses to end users of a space. Increasingly, ceiling systems integrate lighting and acoustic treatment into the same product. Learn why acoustics matter more than even to the effective design of commercial spaces, analogies between lighting and acoustics (health, quality, and technical terms), and what to watch out for when specifying acoustic materials.
