The design of open plan offices has become a subject of intense scrutiny in recent years. At EIAS, in a presentation by Juan Negreira the practical implications of ISO 22955 for open plan office design were discussed, shedding light on the important considerations and best practices. The role of acoustics in offices At the outset […]

Great presentation of ISO 22955 at Internoise
Conference proceeding by Michel Batista: Acoustic assessment of an open-plan office environment against the newly published ISO 22955 acoustic parameters New ISO 22955 for open plan offices was a topic of a few research papers at Internoise. Michel Batista from Subsonic Designs showed interesting examples of in-situ measurements and simulations according to ISO 22955 and […]
Basic principles of acoustic design from ISO 22955
’ISO 22955: Acoustic Quality of Open Offices’ was released earlier this year. It specifics clear guidelines for what constitutes acoustic quality in open offices. The task of designing open offices with satisfactory acoustics conditions can be quite complex. ISO 22955 reduces this complexity in several ways. One of them is by clearly defining the most […]
Design dive: Open offices, part 2 – Geometry
Designing good office acoustics is notoriously hard. We give you the exact guidance you need for this task in this blog post series. What are the primary factors for acoustic design you should consider when working with open offices? How should you approach the task of designing or improving the sound environment in an open-plan […]
ISO 22955: Acoustic quality of open offices
A new international standard was recently released focusing on one of the most complex indoor sound environments, the open office. Delivering you clear instructions for creating great acoustics in demanding environments is one of our main objectives, so we are happy to update you on the new ISO 22955. So what is its scope and […]
