Arena

We have specific experience of acoustic design in arenas, having worked on some of the world’s most popular music and entertainment venues including The O2, The SSE Hydro, Coca-Cola Arena, Dubai.

We combine expertise in acoustic design for arenas with our knowledge and experience of live music and events. By analysing the propagation of sound in our modelling software, we investigate different surfaces to provide an optimised layout for acoustic quality and use audible demonstrations to make informed design decisions.

Recording Studios

Vanguardia has a long history with the music industry, working with studio owners around the world to help them create the best possible spaces for recording. In our capacity as designers, we work closely with architects to create studios that are specifically tailored to each client’s requirements.

The work often varies, with each project possessing its own intricacies. Importantly, we understand that recording studios need a refined approach, requiring more than just control of sound levels, but also acoustic perfection.

Commercial & Residential

Vanguardia has particular expertise working as acoustic consultants on both commercial and residential projects. Whether buildings are used for work, living or retail, it is crucial that they are designed with optimum sound insulation and acoustic environments in mind.

We work closely with our clients, often from initial concepts and architectural and environmental modelling, right through to pre-completion testing. By conducting precision acoustic and structural measurements, noise impact reports and providing technical support throughout, we ensure minimal noise interference for everything from building ventilation to full-scale construction.
