Healing effect of acoustics & architecture

Room acoustics are playing an increasingly important role in everyday practice and clinic life. Our project for the oral surgery practice in Hamburg shows how the interplay of pleasant acoustics and modern architecture creates a harmonious environment for patients and staff.

Hard and smooth surfaces are necessary for hygienic reasons, but increase sound reflection and lead to a disturbing background noise. Footsteps, voices and the humming of medical devices impair well-being.

Our solution: simple light and acoustic ceiling sails and an acoustic baffle design object in light colors. The flapping wings of our apn Lamella^® Wave acoustic baffles were designed especially for the reception area. The extravagant wave shape combined with LED pendant lights creates an impressive acoustic design object.

The apn^® Vinta Lux Flare acoustic luminous ceiling sails combine acoustic attenuation, illumination and indirect lighting. Energy-efficient LED luminaires ensure a high level of lighting comfort and full sound absorption. The altered spatial effect of the reception area has a positive influence on perception and sets the room visually and acoustically in scene.

apn^® Vinta Lux Single XL square acoustic luminous ceiling sails illuminate the waiting area and contribute to acoustic attenuation. In combination with apn^® Vinta A Square, a floating, three-dimensional chessboard is created on the ceiling.

The targeted integration of acoustic and architectural solutions creates a harmonious and health-promoting atmosphere that significantly improves the well-being of patients and staff.
