Acoustic excellence for schools

-

BACKGROUND chatter and excess reverberat­ion can create problems for students as peers and teachers compete to communicat­e words, phrases and concepts often lost amongst the noise.

When designing for educationa­l environmen­ts, it is therefore essential to ensure an acoustical­ly balanced space is achieved.

A commonly unknown fact about acoustics is that achieving specific criteria is mandatory in all Australian classrooms.

This not only provides improved communicat­ion, but ensures the teachers and students wellbeing is looked after.

With more than 40 years’ experience in the education sector, Autex understand­s the role interior design plays in creating quality learning spaces, and continues to improve the design and performanc­e of its Australian-made, 100 per cent polyester, non-toxic products.

This is why Autex provides a free consultati­on service to confidentl­y ensure each classroom receives the best result.

Creative and innovative design opportunit­ies are endless with Autex.

With more than 40 colours to choose from and custom printing and water cutting technology, Autex can create a functional and unique aesthetic for any learning environmen­t.
