Why hire an acoustical consultant?
Avoid conspicuous noise problems - the noise problems that lead to negative reviews. Going beyond simply avoiding bad reviews, the acoustical environment in a restaurant should be designed to help foster an atmosphere appropriate to the particular restaurant format and target demographic. Sound in a restaurant comes from a combination of sources, primarily food and drink prep, building HVAC systems, talking by guests and staff, and music. An acoustic consultant can help guide a new design to establish and achieve goals for liveliness and ease of conversing.
“Nate, it’s awesome. We nailed it! It’s the best restaurant ever for sound. Everyone comments on it.”
Chicane
“Soundscape’s ability to explain the benefits of their acoustical design recommendations has allowed us to create spaces with the right level of energy, acoustic ambience, and speech intelligibility to fit our restaurant concepts. They offer practical solutions that are measurable and work with the aesthetics and within the budget.”
