To address these challenges, AWN implemented a range of innovative acoustic solutions. A key approach was the selection of high-performance acoustic materials to control noise propagation within the open-plan areas. Acoustic ceilings, wall treatments, and flooring were carefully chosen to absorb sound effectively and minimise reverberation, resulting in a more comfortable and functional working environment
Additionally, the layout was strategically designed to incorporate acoustic buffers, such as partitions and furniture arrangements, to separate open-plan areas. Cellular offices and soundproof phone booths were also integrated into the design, offering employees private spaces for focused work and confidential conversations. These features ensured that privacy and acoustic comfort were maintained without compromising the open and collaborative nature of the workspace.
