The acoustic conditioning of premises, restaurants, offices and other spaces has occupied many lines of our blog in this year 2024. We have talked about reverberation, the harmful effect it causes on the use and environment of different types of rooms and how the incorporation strategic use of wood acoustic panels on walls and/or ceilings can improve acoustics while achieving a modern, warm and elegant design.

We have described it on more than one occasion in this blog. There is an acoustic phenomenon called reverberation that causes sound to remain in the environment longer than is desirable for proper hearing. It is recognised as a type of murmur or echo that makes it hard to understand messages and conversations, posing difficulties in properly perceiving what another person is telling you and causing misunderstandings. You have surely experienced this before, for example, in restaurant dining rooms. As we have explained in previous articles, the solution to this problem is to apply acoustic conditioning to the premises. However, beyond the much-needed good acoustics, there is the willingness of the interlocutors to listen and understand the person speaking in front of you. Tradition dictates that Christmas is a time of peace and love, and of generosity towards others. This generosity has many faces. Empathy, respect and affection can be the best weapons against misunderstandings at Christmas gatherings and meals. Tools for building the harmony, warmth and concord that we desire during these dates; the kind that can turn misunderstandings into ‘good understandings’. That is why we wish you a Christmas full of goodwill with family and friends. All of us want to have a holiday season full of sweet, emotional moments, full of connection and good understanding, the kind we see in films, but which also really exists, when we put our minds to it. The Spigogroup Team wishes you a Merry Christmas and a Happy 2025.

The use of wood acoustic tiles is a comprehensive decorative solution that combines functionality, aesthetics and sustainability. This material, increasingly popular in architecture and interior design, has a significant impact on the creation of more human and sustainable spaces, covering key aspects such as acoustics, humanization of the environment, sustainability and positive emotional and environmental impact. Acoustics: improving sound comfort Wood acoustic tiles or wood acoustic panels are designed for acoustic conditioning and optimization of the sound quality of interior spaces. Its sound-absorbing properties allow reverberation to be controlled, creating quieter and more functional environments that encourage concentration and guarantee good communication. This is especially important in places such as offices, schools, hospitals or auditoriums. Humanization of spaces Wood, as a natural material, has a unique ability to connect people with nature, contributing to the creation of more welcoming and humane environments. Its texture, warm tone and aesthetic variety generate a feeling of visual and emotional comfort, which contrasts with the coldness of materials such as metal or concrete. In addition, an auditory balanced environment improves social interaction and performance in work or educational activities. Positive emotional and environmental impact Biophilic design, which seeks to integrate natural elements into built environments, highlights the importance of wood in emotional well-being. Studies have shown that spaces with natural elements reduce stress, improve mood and stimulate creativity. Sustainability The use of PEFC or FSC certified wood acoustic panels, such as those manufactured by Spigo, encourages responsible practices in forest management. Wood is a renewable resource and its processing generates a low carbon footprint. By choosing wood from sustainable sources, you contribute to the conservation of forests and the reduction of environmental impact.
