Improve acoustics
Want better acoustics at home? Here's the smart way to do it
Are you bothered by echo or a hollow-sounding room? Do you hear every laugh, footstep or child's voice echo three times? There's a good chance that your acoustics are not up to par. No worries: with a few smart adjustments (and a beautiful Piece of Art on the wall), this is easy to solve.
Why does it sound so hollow?
Many modern interiors contain hard materials: a concrete floor, high ceilings, a leather couch or minimalist furniture. Beautiful? Certainly. Good for the acoustics? Unfortunately not. Sound bounces back and causes an annoying echo.
7 tips to improve acoustics:
-
🪴 Add soft materials: such as rugs, curtains, fabric furniture and cushions.
-
🖼️ Hang acoustic wall art, like our felt artworks.
-
🪟 Use window treatments (curtains or pleated blinds work wonders).
-
🛋️ Create nooks in the room – this breaks up the path of the sound.
-
🌿 Add plants – they break and absorb sound.
-
🪑 Choose upholstered furniture instead of hard materials.
-
🔄 Experiment with the layout – sometimes a small shift makes a difference.
How exactly do our artworks work?
Our acoustic artworks are made of PET felt: compressed plastic fibers with an open structure. As a result, sound is not reflected, but absorbed. The sound waves disappear into the artwork and with them the reverberation.
✔️ Sustainable material
✔️ Ready to hang immediately
✔️ Beautiful and functional
Where do you hang an acoustic artwork?
The best place? A large, bare wall where the sound can play freely. Think of:
- The wall behind the couch
- The dining room wall
- A home office
- The hall or staircase
The larger the artwork, the better the effect. With one large artwork or a set of several pieces, you not only improve the acoustics, you also add atmosphere.
