This book is an authoritative but uniquely accessible and highly illustrated guide to
good acoustic design practice for architects, interior designers and acoustic
professionals.
It provides a user-friendly introduction to architectural acoustics
and acoustics technology where the market is crowded with dense and technical
texts. It will go through each typology in turn explaining the key acoustic
concepts with highly illustrated and international case studies that
demonstrate cutting-edge practice and technology, innovative design techniques
and common challenges and solutions.
