Design Strategies for Ventilated Acoustic Booths in Offices

Explore design strategies for office acoustic booths that combine airflow and sound absorption using perforated panels.

Design Strategies for Ventilated Acoustic Booths in Offices

In our previous article on acoustic panels for call booths, we introduced their role in improving clarity. Now, let’s explore design strategies for building ventilation-friendly acoustic booths in corporate environments.

1. The Dual Challenge

Booths designed for privacy and quiet calls often restrict ventilation, leading to discomfort. According to the Applied Acoustics Journal, poor airflow in small enclosures impacts both user comfort and productivity.

2. Smart Design Approaches

Perforated Wall Panels: Combine acoustic absorption with airflow.
Ceiling Integration: Panels with hidden vents allow natural air exchange.
Hybrid Materials: PET or wooden perforated panels balance sustainability with sound control.
Compact Modular Systems: Easy to install and relocate in open-plan offices.

3. Placement Recommendations

Side Walls: Improve voice clarity without blocking ventilation.
Ceilings: Reduce echo while supporting airflow.
Partitions: Use as both visual dividers and sound absorbers.

4. Why Perforated Panels Work Best

Compared to solid absorbers, perforated acoustic panels allow air exchange, making them the most effective solution for small booths with limited ventilation. Endorsed by the Acoustical Society of America, they enhance speech clarity and user comfort simultaneously.
