Overview
Project Summary
EducationalRecording Studio
An educational recording and media production facility designed to give students hands-on experience with professional-grade acoustic environments.
Tracking rooms, control rooms, and post-production suites were each engineered to industry reference standards, scaled to the realities of a teaching environment and shared use.
Sound isolation between adjacent classrooms and studios was prioritized so multiple sessions can run in parallel without compromise to either instruction or recording quality.

02
Zoned simultaneous learning
Planned isolation between studios, labs, and classrooms so recording, instruction, and editing can happen at the same time.
03
Tuned the teaching spaces
Balanced room acoustics for instructors, students, and recorded material so lessons remain clear and technical work remains accurate.
04
Validated the facility
Measured completed spaces and adjusted systems so the school inherited rooms that perform reliably from day one.
