the materials in the space consist of concrete, metal(s), glass, and paper, mostly. this does nothing good for the acoustics. reverberations are greater due to non-porous, reflective surfaces that bounce the sound waves right back. as a result of this, the space becomes uncomfortable and noisy. even small crowds sound large and private conversations are no longer private.
today there are many solutions to the acoustical problems in spaces such as these. there are rubber and cork floor underlayments as well as many different finishes of acoustic paneling. there are acoustical panels that can even be tacked in to. this could easily replace those that are existant in the space now.
Bonded Logic makes acoustical panels from recycled natural fibers. they’re treated with a non-toxic solution that stops the growth of mold and mildew as well.
incorporating acoustical panels wherever possible would greatly help the space. ceiling and floor treatments would also be beneficial due to the volume of the space. tack boards are easily replaceable with panels as well.
