Let us transform your sound-related questions into evidence-based action plans!
We have experience in collaborative research projects with different funding agencies, but also industry contracts and we’re open to consulting opportunities.

We have a history of turning ideas into a concrete process with viable outcomes.
So, whether you are a planning or design firm, an academic or health institution, a municipality, a non-governmental entity or a corporate setting, we can help you :

Our projects rely on participatory approaches to the design of built environment and products, integrating different perspectives on sound from a wide range of stakeholders.
