    Creating a quieter environment to enhance student focus and learning outcomes was the objective of this classroom design. To achieve this, the architect carefully selected a combination of high-performance acoustic products:

    1. GenieMat RST05 – A resilient underlayment designed to reduce impact noise.
    2. PhoneStar Tri – A sand-filled soundproofing board to control airborne noise.
    3. Decoupling Plate – A key component to prevent direct sound transmission.
    4. Finished Floor Covering: Carpet Tile.
