Overview
Project Summary
Recording StudioCorporate
A flagship writing and production complex for one of the world's leading music publishers, engineered to deliver professional tracking, mixing, and creative work in a corporate envelope.
Each room is decoupled from the building structure with floating floors and isolated wall and ceiling assemblies, eliminating transfer between adjacent writing rooms and the surrounding office floor.
Custom millwork integrates broadband absorption and tuned diffusion at the rear wall, producing a flat, predictable response built around large-format consoles and outboard racks.
