Merry Christmas and Happy 2022

By Acoustics, Architecture, Construction, Decoration, News No Comments

The year 2021 is leaving us. With its lights and shadows, it has been a year of hope, in which we have won major battles against the pandemic. However, we have also come to realise that the struggle to recover that longed-for normality will be long and hard. During these months, we have talked with clients, partners and friends about commitment and the future, always with optimism and with that positive attitude that defines us. We firmly believe in our ability to face great challenges, even greater than the ones we are facing today. We have no doubt, not even for an instant, that, with effort and perseverance, we will be able to overcome all our difficulties and attain our goals. We renew our commitment to the evolution and development of acoustic and decorative solutions in wood for the coming year. We steadfastly uphold our goal to participate in the creation of increasingly comfortable and attractive spaces. Our unwavering commitment to help make this planet a more comfortable and more sustainable place also remains unchanged. It is well worth it. Our world is fascinating. You just have to look at it through the right lens. Now the Christmas season is upon us. We will fondly remember those who are no longer with us and welcome the new ones who are celebrating their first Christmas with us. We will enjoy the little things that really matter, which become relevant precisely at Christmas. Afterwards we will restart our activity full of strength and anticipation. At Spigogroup, we wish you a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year 2022.     If you liked this post, you may also be interested in:   – Decorative false ceiling with wood slats: 3 options and installation methods – Acoustics in schools and speech clarity – Decorating an office with wood: choosing shades and colours – What is the Lombard Effect or Lombard Reflex?

Acoustic panels in hotels, what do they contribute?

By Acoustics, Architecture, Construction, Decoration, News No Comments

  The use of acoustic panels in hotels can radically change the perception of the quality of an establishment. Let’s imagine this situation. Perhaps, you can even remember a similar case. You arrive at the reception of a hotel in the middle of the high season. It’s crowded. There is a queue to check in, the trolleys of departing guests are clattering on the floor, bored children are running about and screaming, the phone is ringing non-stop, you hear nothing but noises, echoes and everyone talking loudly to make themselves understood. You have just arrived with the intention of enjoying a few days of rest and it seems you’ve come to the wrong place. In the corridors, more of the same. Every word you utter sounds like you’re in a church. At lunch time, you go down to the dining room and the experience is terrible. Again, unceasing, stressful noise echoes throughout the room. The acoustics are awful and so are your holidays. In the evening, sipping your last drink in the hotel bar/dance hall, enveloped again in the garbled sounds of conversation and assorted noises, you decide you’ll never go back to that hotel again. This fictional tale, which many will recognize as not so far removed from reality, is the consequence of poor acoustics. There is no such a thing as a good hotel with bad acoustics. Acoustics is, just like the design, how the staff behave and the range of of services on offer, one of the key aspects that define the quality of a hotel. Acoustic conditioning in hotels, with sound-absorbent wood acoustic panels that are placed strategically (reception, dining rooms, cafeteria…) and integrated into the general décor of each room, is the discreet and elegant solution to control reverberation and ensuing acoustic issues. Can we help you?         If you liked this post about acoustic panels in hotels, you may also be interested in:   – Improve acoustics and eliminate annoying noise in restaurants, bars and hotels – Project in wood and winery technical doors for Bodegas Piérola and Hotel FyA – Wood accessible ceilings in the Ibiza Gran Hotel – I want decorative wood ceilings in my project, what are my choices?
