Acoustics in churches

Reverberation is often associated with churches. This is no wonder, since high ceilings, vaults and tall glass panes create a very high level of reverberation. Nowadays, church buildings are often used for concerts, workshops, exhibitions, etc. It is important that the problem of reverberation is solved for these events, since intelligibility plays a key role. To achieve intelligibility a specific approach is required.

Optimizing acoustics in church buildings for modern uses

This new function of church buildings assumes the need for new acoustics. The acoustic solution is challenging, since the adaptations may not hamper the church building’s beautiful sounding board. Fortunately, insightful use of noise-damping materials in strategic locations is one of our many strengths.
