Residential

Our team delivers quality residential and RRP housing development by taking an holistic view, looking at issues such as:

​

- Are you near to existing noise making businesses that might claim 'Agent of Change' ?

- What might be the mitigation burden of that ?

- How the acoustic separation standards internally between dwellings, and also to commercial in mixed use, might be achieved economically with light structures  ?

​

- Ensuring sustainability is integral to the project, and an option for you to take through alternatives that we will flag through our advice on use of eco-materials and low energy solutions. 

​

- How ventilation will work in a noisy environment, to make passive ventilation workable 

​

- How to create protected amenity areas for provide quality environments

- How to use sound to create valued soundscapes within in the development that will provide community focus and identity 

​

We steer clients through complex planning and legislation processes, with an eye on using sound to create better places to live, learn and be long into the future.
