La Faràndula Restaurant with Acoustic Panels that Eliminate Noise

Description

La Faràndula restaurant opened its doors in 2017 in the city of Badalona. A place to enjoy and share, offering simple but quality cuisine in a beautiful and pleasant environment.

The formula has worked and it has become one of the references in the city. So much so that in 2023 they opened another Farándula in Vilassar de Mar, in Maresme.

A very cozy place, imbued with the same essence and philosophy that characterizes La Farándula.

However, the place did not have proper acoustic conditioning and with the place full, the noise was amplified and customers had to raise their voices more and more.

Client's Comment

With the place full, the noise was amplified and customers had to raise their voices more and more. We tried to find a solution quickly and let ourselves be advised by VisualPlanet.
Finally, we opted for soundproofing panels that are easy to install and, given the variety of colors and shapes, fit well in any space.

We have really noticed a change and are very happy with the advice and attention received from VisualPlanet.

They are very professional and quick in management. Totally recommendable.

Solution

In an acoustically unconditioned space, reflected noise increases and people need to raise their voices, which in turn increases reverberation, reducing audibility and requiring even louder speech. This creates a cycle of increasing noise that is uncomfortable for customers.

At VisualPlanet, we have enough experience to solve these problems in a simple way and avoiding aesthetic impact, on the contrary, we offer a solution that also decorates.

We collect the dimensions of the space, its volume, and the materials that make up the walls, ceilings, floors, furniture, etc. With all this, we perform exhaustive calculations that allow us to know the existing RT (Reverberation Time) and the most problematic areas within a range of frequencies to eliminate, whether voice, music, or machinery.

After the calculations, we know how many absorbent acoustic panels we need, as well as the type of panel, thickness, and frequency range in which they should operate.

The final result manages to lower the RT below the standards set for this type of business.

In addition to eliminating noise and reducing reverberation, the panels can be placed on the walls and columns, creating a warm and unique atmosphere adapted to the aesthetics of the place.

One of the surfaces that most reflects sound is usually the ceiling, depending on the material it is made of, which is why, once treated, it is the surface that eliminates the most reverberation.
