WHO WE ARE
arquison™ was formed in Valencia (Spain) in 2004 by a group of architects who were specialized in architectural and environmental acoustics. They had the common objective to offer projects that combined the best acoustic properties with constructive and aesthetic values. In our work we join acoustics and architecture equally. We provide acoustic consulting services in all kind of spaces and to a wider set of clients, creating personalized acoustic solutions to each situation and moment. We work added values such as mounting details, shop drawings, budgets, analysis of structures, energy efficiency, environmental aspects… From the beginning, arquison™ can be distinguished by its strong presence during the construction process as a distinctive and quality value. For us, the acoustics can’t be separated from the other disciplines involved in the construction of a building.

MISSION
VISION
VALUES
Our target is to contribute effectively in the construction and the urban development through acoustic consulting, providing more especially our expertise and experience. Our projects have always focused on solving acoustic issues for institutions, architects, engineers, musicians, artists,... providing in each specific case solutions adapted to their specific environment, economic, technological, ... The acoustic study becomes an acoustic project when it reaches the level of execution and integrates with the general documentation of the project.
ARCHITECTURE + ACOUSTICS In arquison™, we strive to be a reference in acoustic consulting providing our onsite expertise. The acoustics as a final element where a large group of trades and occupations are joined, acoustics as part of a whole and target. We are working hard to create a brand recommended regarding quality and acoustic comfort in all engineering consulting, forums and communities.
The value as an acoustic quality available for all stakeholders in a subjective science, where experience and knowledge with some magic meet equally. The most rewarding thing is to be able to participate and contribute our value in the execution of large scale infrastructures that allow to some people (artists, musicians, singers...) to convey feelings, messages, moods... and for others (spectators), to receive and participate.

PROFILE
ACOUSTIC STUDY The acoustic study consists in adjusting the values of the acoustic parameters to the specific use of the room. In order to achieve the right values of the acoustic parameters we define geometric features of the space, finishes and closures. - Internal geometry of the room and the stage. - Acoustic shell. - Interior covering materials. - 3D modeling of the space. - Parameters estimation by simulation. - Definition of wall sections and entrances. - Construction details of the solutions proposed. - Analysis and evaluation of the background noise.
ACOUSTIC CONTROL - SITE SUPERVISION It aims the following goal: execution management of solutions proposed, redesign of alternative solutions and architectural acoustic consultancy.
FINAL REPORT OF ACOUSTIC QUALITY Although the reverberation time is a very important measure, a number of acoustic parameters that are significant for acoustic quality are also taken into account, these relate to the temporal development and the direction of the reflections that arrive to every listener. This is possible with the help of DIRAC Room Acoustic Software Br端el & Kjaer type 7841 program.
4 | WHO WE ARE
ENVIRONMENTAL ACOUSTICS - NOISE MAPS The aim of this section shall be the intention to avoid, prevent or reduce the harmful effects due to exposure to environmental noise. Noise levels are calculated considering real scenarios and analyzing the worst cases of noise emission. In the next step these are compared with the limits established in the applicable legislation. The software used is ‘Predictor’ (version 7.1) by Bruel&Kjaer.
STAGE EQUIPMENT The principal aim of the stage equipment is the coherent and functional design of spaces that allow the execution of events that are witnessed by the audience.
ARCHITECTURAL PROJECTS ARCHITECTURE + ACOUSTICS. The practice of architecture as a base of ongoing professional development in order to fulfill both practical and expressive requirements, and utilitarian and aesthetic ends. Architecture and acoustics are developed in parallel complementing one another.

WHAT WE DO
ARCHITECTURAL ACOUSTICS Relationship between sound produced in a space and its listeners, of particular concern in the design of concert halls and auditoriums. Good acoustic design takes into account such issues as reverberation time; sound absorption of the finish materials; echoes; acoustic shadows; sound intimacy, texture, and blend; and external noise. Architectural modifications (e.g., orchestral shells, canopies, and undulating or angled ceilings and walls) may act as focusing elements to improve sound quality.

ACOUSTIC STUDY
The acoustic study is the cornerstone of all our activity. Apart from our great acoustic calculation skills, our academic knowledge enables us to understand how the structure works, prepare construction details and approximate the design costs. Our mission, provide to the clients a precise information and meets their expectations. Our cooperation starts with interviewing the client, so that we can prepare detailed preview of the space that will be developed.

ENVIRONMENTAL ACOUSTICS NOISE MAPPING
“The aim of this section shall be intend to avoid, prevent or reduce on a prioritized basis the harmful effects, including annoyance, due to exposure to environmental noise. To that end the following actions shall be implemented progressively: 1. The determination of exposure to environmental noise, through noise mapping. 2. Ensuring that information on environmental noise and its effects is made available to the public. 3. Adoption of action plans based upon noise mapping results, with a view to preventing and reducing environmental noise where necessary and particularly where exposure levels can induce harmful effects on human health and to preserving environmental noise quality where it is good.
“Noise mapping” shall mean the presentation of data on an existing or predicted noise situation in terms of a noise indicator, indicating breaches of any relevant limit value in force, the number of people affected in a certain area, or the number of dwellings exposed to certain values of a noise indicator in a certain area. “Acoustical planning” shall mean controlling future noise by planned measures, such as land-use planning, systems engineering for traffic, traffic planning, abatement by sound-insulation measures and noise control of sources.”

STAGE EQUIPMENT
The flexibility that you can give to the room, the possibility of holding a very different kind and formats of events such as a theatre play, a symphony concert or a professional congress, obliges to have technical means that enable the requirements of each one. These technical means are defined as “stage equipment”. We talk about creating theatre spaces. In the development of the stage equipment the following sections are studied:
ARCHITECTURAL PROJECT
Our professional organization can also develop the complete function of architectural firm in drafting projects, structures calculation, budgets, Safety and Health studies, building permissions,...

ELECTROACOUSTIC STAGE EQUIPMENT
The different alternatives of the speaker systems for a room will be analyzed from knowledge of the architectural constraints of it, as well as from the requirements of its acoustic quality: -Constraints due to interior finishes of the room. Systems that can integrate them into the aesthetics of the room are proposed in order to go completely unnoticed. -Acoustic quality requirements. Any musical or recital of contemporary music groups uses equipment and their own speaker systems and very specific, taking care themselves their assembly. Therefore, the proposed systems offer us a guarantee of uniform distribution of levels and a suitable speech intelligibility. -Location of elements in places easy to reach. All phases of the development of an electroacoustic project are met: -Preliminary Study of the client´s needs. -Analysis of the technical details of the installation. -Drafting the audiovisual project: -Audio. -Video. -Scenic lighting. -Scenic mechanics. -Stage draperies. -Control systems (Automation). -Digital signage. -Technology for simultaneous translation and lectures. -Teletraining systems.

MATERIAL DESIGN
We support projects in many occasions with personality or peculiarities where is difficult to use specific materials. For this cases we can develop a custom material that fulfill both acoustic and aesthetic needs. To design a product, it can appeal to many manufacturing processes and types of materials with advanced technology or more traditional, used for the sake of sustainable development or productivity, economic or luxurious... Because of lack of information, clients sometimes abandon an idea, thus depriving themselves of an invaluable source of inspiration. There are now about 300.000 different known materials and as materials scientists create and combine materials in new ways, the number can be infinite. That’s why we can use a wide range of them to provide satisfaction on each project for each client and make a unique design in the world.
