PERFORMING ARTS
An in depth and extensive analysis of architectural acoustics and performance audio-visual system design using historical models, computer analysis and attention to detail from programming phase through commissioning.
EDUCATION
Responding to the specific acoustic, A/V and IT needs of the students and faculty for classrooms, labs, practice and rehearsal spaces and lecture halls in the K-12 and higher ed markets.
MUSEUMS
A unique service that provides sound quality and sound control for museum and exhibit based environments including the acoustic design for special exhibits, mini-theaters, atriums, galleries and performance spaces.
HOUSES OF WORSHIP
A sensitive approach to the often conflicting acoustic requirments of the spoken word and music during a worship service. Natural acoustic design coordination with an organ and audio system coordination with the architecture are main stays in this building type.
COMMERCIAL & GOVERNMENT
Solving challenging acoustical issues, designing a problem free acoustic environment and specifying audio and visual equipment are just some of the services we provide for a wide range of buildings including courtrooms, libraries, offices and board rooms.

The Eli and Edythe Broad Stage
Santa Monica College, Santa Monica, California



The 499 seat theater on the Madison Campus of Santa Monica College accommodates a wide spectrum of programs ranging from live theater, film and lectures to classical music concerts, opera, musical theater and amplified entertainment events. The acoustical qualities of the hall desired for the range of anticipated  programming are quite different, requiring the design to incorporate means to adjust the environment to suit these various performance types.
