Education and University
Research shows acoustics as one of the leading elements to consider in a classroom or learning setting. Acoustics can be manipulated in lecture halls or study rooms to mitigate noise, positively impacting learning, speech perception, and teacher facilitation.
Restaurant
The proper acoustics compliment any dining experience. Using BASWA Sound Absorbing Plaster Systems, intentional sound, like guest conversation at a table, is more intelligible without losing background sound ambience. Excessive noise has also been shown to change the perceived taste of food.
Performing Arts
By absorbing excess reverberation typical within a large performing arts or auditorium space, guests are able to connect and immerse in the art they’ve come to experience. Adjacent event space or practice / rehearsal rooms benefit greatly from consideration as well.
Make every seat the best seat in the house with optimal acoustics achieved through sound absorption.
Museums
Architecture in the modern museum has dramatically changed with the emergence of exhibits characterized by audio systems, coupled with hard surfaces and vaulted ceilings. By utilizing sound absorbing ceiling or walls, local sound in galleries or planetariums is made intelligible without adding to environmental noise or sacrificing design.
Hospitality
Create beautiful, tranquil spaces that allow for guest enjoyment while maintaining sound isolation. In the hotel setting, BASWA Phon mitigates lobby, atrium, or event space noise that could be disruptive to hotel guests while making guest connections more intelligible.
Corporate
By reducing reverberant sounds within the corporate environment, BASWA Systems create productive offices, boardroom and conference room spaces, fostering intentional conversation and collaboration. Additionally, the system's high density marble aggregate finish coat reflects natural light, further benefiting employee wellbeing and productivity.
Historical Renovation
Utilizing BASWA Phon in historical places and retrofits preserves the architectural integrity of the historical space while improving acoustics for renewed function. The installation method of BASWA Phon Sound Absorbing Plaster allows for the introduction of acoustic material without disturbing existing architecture.
Healthcare
In healthcare and medical facilities, the acoustic environment and natural light have been found to be paramount to patient healing. BASWA acoustical plaster systems create the tranquility conducive to recovery while optimizing natural light presence due to the high-density marble aggregate finish’s highly reflective surface.
Spas and Pools
The system is non-water soluble and maintains efficacy even in high-humidity environments, such as pool rooms, spas, natatoriums, and porte-cocheres. BASWA Phon is seamlessly integrated to achieve tranquility without worry of mold or mildew.
Library
When focus and productivity matter, the introduction of sound absorbing materials supports the ideal study and learning environment. BASWA Systems absorb excessive reverberant sound through open spaces and reading rooms to positively impact reading comprehension and wellbeing within libraries.
Transportation
Within airport terminals, train stations, and other transportation centers, speech intelligibility is integral to the traveling process. By making speech more intelligible in the midst of bustling crowds, BASWA Phon benefits the traveling process by making public announcements such as unexpected delays or transit changes audible.
Government
Speech intelligibility in the courtroom setting is paramount to judicial proceedings. By absorbing reverberation within the courtroom, BASWA Phon helps to ensure that speech is heard clearly despite an array of hard surfaces typical within the courtroom.
Religious
Reducing echoes and unwanted reverberant sound in worship and church spaces allows the congregation to better comprehend and connect. Where community is cornerstone in such spaces, making spoken interactions more intelligible is made possible with the inclusion of sound absorbing plaster systems.
Retail
In retail spaces that are often-times higher traffic, BASWA Phon absorbs excessive reverberant sound which is conducive to lowering stress and anxiety, positively impacting the experience and wellbeing of shoppers.
