Synopsis

The pursuit of acoustic comfort in office spaces: a work in progress.
Step into a world where sound meets design at our engaging seminar with keynote speaker, Pascal van Dort. In his presentation he will unravel the complexities of acoustic comfort in the dynamic landscape of open office environments.
In today’s collaborative office settings, noise control is more than a luxury – it’s a necessity for ensuring health, wellbeing and productivity. Our seminar will introduce ISO 22955, the recently published standard for managing acoustic comfort in open offices, providing you with the tools to create spaces where sound supports, rather than hinders, workplace activities.

Discover how to balance aesthetics and functionality to create an acoustically harmonious office.
This seminar is tailored for interior designers, architects and anyone passionate about creating healthier, more productive workplaces. Gain actionable insights into how design can influence acoustic comfort, leading to improved focus, reduced stress and a more enjoyable work atmosphere. Don’t miss this chance to learn how to turn down the noise and turn up the productivity and wellbeing in your office design.
