4 Examples of spaces where controlling acoustic reverberation with wood acoustic panels is essential

By Acoustics, Architecture, Construction, Decoración, Decoration

Controlling acoustic reverberation is essential for enhancing the sound quality of a space and plays a crucial role in construction or renovation projects for any venue. Reverberation is the permanence of sound beyond the time required to properly hear and understand a message. Explained in a more technical manner, “reverberation time” is the time it takes for the sound to decay by 60 dB as received stood the sound emission source stops. Here are four prime examples of spaces where controlling acoustic reverberation with sound-absorbing wood acoustic panels is absolutely essential:   1. Auditoriums and theatres These spaces are specifically designed for musical and theatrical performances, demanding exceptional sound quality. In many cases, artificial amplification is either limited or non-existent, making acoustic treatment essential to ensure optimal sound diffusion for both voices and instruments. Acoustic panels installed on walls and ceilings help optimise sound distribution, prevent excessive reverberation, and guarantee an outstanding auditory experience.     2. Meeting rooms In a meeting room, speech clarity and comprehension are key to effective communication. Installing acoustic panels enhances speech intelligibility and contributes to a more productive and professional environment.       3. University lecture halls and educational centres In classrooms, sound must be evenly distributed to ensure all students can clearly hear the lecturer. Unlike theatres, these spaces generate noise from the students themselves, requiring highly efficient acoustic design. Proper acoustic conditioning ensures clear speech comprehension, promotes concentration, and fosters an ideal learning environment.       4. Recording studios and music rooms These spaces demand the highest level of acoustic control to achieve high-quality recordings. Even the slightest unnoticed reverberation can compromise a recording session, affecting the final outcome. For this reason, acoustic panels, combined with soundproofing solutions, are essential to achieving a pure and well-defined sound.           If you liked this post about controlling acoustic reverberation, you may also be interested in:   – 9 decorative wood wall panels that will add value to your decorative project – The aesthetic and optical effect of parallel wood slats – The use of decorative wood panels in nordic or scandinavian decoration – How to carry out wood acoustic panel maintenance

Lighting and wood slat cladding: the case of ISCG Business School

By Architecture, Arquitectura, Decoración, Decoration, Proyectos en Madera Spigogroup, Spigogroup wood projects

Lighting and wood slat cladding are two key elements in the design of new workspaces and educational spaces. This is the case of the project we bring to our blog today. Wood slat cladding, such as that manufactured by Spigoline, not only adds warmth and sophistication, but also transforms the way in which light, both natural and artificial, interacts with the environment. In a classroom, the strategic placement of wood slats tiles on the ceilings allows natural light to be controlled, softening its entry and distributing it evenly to avoid glare or uncomfortable shadows. When there is a lack of natural light, cladding facilitates the integration of artificial lighting through the incorporation of LED lights or recessed lighting systems. This was the case at the new ISCG Paris Business School. The Institut Supérieur de Commerce et de Gestion (ISCG), commissioned Deskeo Space Management SAS the design, renovation and equipping of the new centre, located in a 400-m² dark building in the heart of the 4th arrondissement of the French capital. The challenge was to achieve a bright and welcoming space, perfectly adapted to the pedagogical needs of the school, in a space that lacked windows and natural light. To achieve this, they opted for the installation of approximately 200 m² of Spigoline Grid 3-30-70-90 wood slat cladding on the ceilings, in 3-strip lengths. 000×360 cm, finished in PSM R12354 stain (similar to oak) and autoclave treated. To compensate for the absence of natural light, subtle, wrap-around lighting was designed with LED strips and carefully integrated ceiling lights. The result was, quite simply, spectacular.       . .

Cleaning Spigo wood acoustic panels

Cleaning Spigo wood acoustic panels is very easy

By Acoustics, Architecture, Decoración, Decoration

Cleaning Spigo wood acoustic panels is very easy. This is not an unimportant factor. Architects and decorators often ask us, with some concern, how to keep the wood acoustic panels in our catalogues clean. The main reason is that they have had some unfortunate experiences with other types of sound-absorbing panels. There is wide range of acoustic panels available on the market that are installed on walls and ceilings for room acoustic conditioning and reverberation control. Many of them are made with felt, wool, textile fibres and even preserved moss or products that mimic plant cover. The type of material they are made of results in very irregular, highly porous visible surfaces. This, coupled with their location, makes daily, quick, easy surface cleaning difficult. Therefore, if no special efforts are made to clean and maintain them, over time they tend to accumulate dust and dirt, which is detrimental to their look and worsens the air quality of the space where they are installed. On the other hand, maintaining and cleaning the wood acoustic panels manufactured by Spigo is very easy. To remove dust and dirt from the panels simply wipe the surface with a slightly damp cloth (do not use abrasive products or products containing silicone) and then wipe with a dry cloth to remove any residual moisture. A simple task that can even be carried out with cleaning mops, or similar implements, if needed, with telescopic handles to allow you to reach any height.           If you liked this post about cleaning Spigo wood acoustic panels, you may also be interested in:   – 9 decorative wood wall panels that will add value to your decorative project – The aesthetic and optical effect of parallel wood slats – The use of decorative wood panels in Nordic or Scandinavian decoration – How to carry out wood acoustic panel maintenance

How to decorate with wood acoustic panels

By Acoustics, Decoración, Decoration

How to decorate with wood acoustic panels? Decorating with wood acoustic panels is a trend that combines functionality and aesthetics, becoming an ideal solution for those looking for spaces with good acoustics and visually attractive. These panels not only fulfill the purpose of improving the acoustic conditioning of any place, but they can also transform the interior design thanks to their multiple decorative contributions. The wood with which they are made is one of their main attributes. This natural resource, appreciated in all cultures for its warmth and elegance, helps create cozy environments that invite comfort. In addition, it offers a direct connection with nature, which generates a feeling of calm and well-being in the spaces where it is used. Another key element is the surface design of a wood acoustic panel. The slots and perforations not only allow controlled acoustic absorption, perfect for keeping the reverberation of a room at bay, but also give decorators and designers the possibility of playing with geometric patterns that enhance the style of each project. Finally, the Spigoacustic and Spigotec brands offer the possibility of finishing the wood acoustic tiles with different finishes in melamine, varnished natural wood, mass-dyed DM, HPL or lacquered, in any reference color from the RAL, PANTONE and NCS charts. , as well as the possibility, for the most daring designs, of adding organic, artistic textures, filigrees, calligraphy, etc. (see Textured decorative panels). We can also screen print wood panels, allowing for custom images, from landscapes or illustrations to business logos or portraits, making them ideal for restaurants, hotels, offices and corporate spaces.             If you liked this post about decorate with wood acoustic panels, you may also be interested in:   – Technical carpentry and acoustic doors for the Villanueva health centre in Logroño. – Wood acoustic tiles to create more humane and sustainable spaces – How do we work at Spigo?
