PORSCHE CENTER SOFIA COMMISSIONED ACOUSTIC WAVES TO DESIGN THE ACOUSTICS OF THEIR RECENTLY OPENED UNDERGROUND SHOWROOM
We are thrilled to report that Acoustic Waves was recently commissioned by Porsche Center Sofia to analyse the acoustics of their new underground level car showroom and offer a plan to treat the venue. The major complaints of the owners were of an exaggerated reverberation time and distinct echo effects that created an unpleasant environment, even for daily usage. Our acoustic analysis confirmed these problems and measured excessive reverberation time of over 6.5 seconds, which is six times over the professional standard for a venue with a volume of 3300 m3.
To balance the acoustic conditions, we engineered a solution to treat over 600m2 surface area with specially designed perforated, membrane, and broadband absorbers. And in order to convince our clients and justify the project objectives, we created a special audio-virtual representation with a comparison between the current acoustic condition and the proposed one, which turned out to be very successful and accomplished immediate and impressive reactions!
