Designs that enhance the built environment.

From room acoustic designs for classrooms, performing arts spaces, research facilities, and residential units to construction activity noise and vibration monitoring, Coffman’s acoustic consultants can address project needs from entitlement through final construction. We design practical spaces while keeping the comfort of end users in mind. Our team is experienced in providing architectural acoustic, environmental noise and vibration, mechanical noise and vibration, and audiovisual consulting services for various facility types and market sectors.

Architectural Acoustics

Architectural acoustics are crucial for space functionality. We collaborate closely with owners, users, and design professionals to identify key acoustic factors, balancing aesthetics and budget for optimal results. Thoughtful acoustic planning benefits nearly all building types.

Our team designs interior acoustic environments to enhance user experience. Testing and measuring the sound in existing or new spaces is essential to validate the acoustic design and troubleshoot poor acoustic environments. Equipped with precision sound level meters, we can test for building code compliance and develop design recommendations.

Environmental Noise Control

Our acoustic consultants measure, analyze, and mitigate environmental noise and vibration. By simplifying complex concepts and developing practical mitigation solutions, we help projects to progress smoothly.

Mechanical Noise and Vibration Control

Controlling mechanical noise and vibration is essential for building performance and should be addressed during the design phase. The need for noise and vibration control has grown, especially in institutions like hospitals and mixed-use residential/commercial buildings. Our consultants are skilled in evaluating and developing solutions for machinery noise and vibration.

Audiovisual

Our audiovisual professionals interpret the technology needs for equipping public and private environments. With years of experience in operation, integration, and consultation for acoustical, audio, control, and video equipment, our audiovisual team has insight into the needs of architects and their clients. We specialize in performance art spaces and sound reinforcement in theatre, educational, government, municipal council chambers, and conference spaces. These capabilities are also applicable to many types of venues.
