1 LightThe open o�ce plan: ideal for collaboration and creativity

but noise and a lack of privacy can inhibit productivity.

2 AcousticMany times, supplemental

acoustic treatments are placed on walls and ceilings to

absorb sound and curb the issue.

EchoA modular system of illuminated pendants consisting of a series of radiating fins to absorb sound and reduce reverberation.

Sola FeltSola Felt utilizes 3form’s PET technology, incorporating 50% post-consumer recycled content. The material is designed to be environmentally sound, durable, and acoustically impactful.

StaticA linear lighting solution, with dimensions optimized for sound absorption, utilizing high-e�ciency LEDs with options for both direct and indirect lighting.

Accomplish acoustic and lighting goals in one versatile package

Lighting + Acoustics Acoustics The Acoustic Collection o�ers an opportunity to integrate lighting and sound absorption closer to the source of noise for an optimal acoustic solution.

LightArt’s Echo and Static fixtures provide solutions for any space where sound matters, such as educational facilities, o�ce spaces, restaurants, and reception areas.

LIGHTART ECHO SYSTEM ABSORPTION

LightArt Echo is a pendant that can be connected as a system to cover large surface areas. The chart on the right shows the range of acoustic absorption possible with Echo, from NRC 0.80–1.00, depending on the fin shape, pendant size, and pendant arrangement.

LIGHTART STATIC ABSORPTION

LightArt Static is o�ered lit and unlit, with lighting components replaced with sound-absorbing felt. The chart to the right shows the “boost” in acoustic performance gained in the unlit version, though both are e�ective acoustic solutions. Note the unit of absorption in this case is sabins since Static is an object and not a surface. The equivalent absorption of Static is NRC 1.00.

RIVERBANK ACOUSTICAL LABS, GENEVA, IL

LightArt utilized two accredited laboratories to measure the sound absorbing properties of Static and Echo, and conducted numerous case studies in a variety of room types. The laboratory measurements yield the two most common acoustic parameters: Noise Reduction Coe�cient (NRC) and sabins per object.

LightArt’s research and development team collaborated with acoustics expert Zackery Belanger of Arcgeometer in a pivotal partnership for the Acoustic Collection.

The year-long e�ort included laboratory and field measurements, and yielded a deep understanding of the performance of Static and Echo as e�ective acoustic and lighting solutions.

EchoPlayful, versatile, dynamic

Sound is three-dimensional, and so is Echo. Its sculptural form provides sound absorption at the ceiling like traditional acoustic systems, and its vertical components tame the horizontal dimensions of the room.

Echo fixtures have a range of NRC values from 0.80 to 1.00 and e�cient absorptive components span between fixtures.

THE CAFÉ

The latest outpost of this Seattle-based chain is in a newly-constructed building with beautiful high ceilings and sliding garage doors that make up the south-facing wall. An open kitchen adds to the acoustical complications of the space.

While allowing light in year-round, and open-air dining in the summer, the doors limited the potential for acoustical wall solutions. A grid of 24 sculptural Echo fixtures was just what the café needed.

THE RESULTS

The Echo installation resulted in a 20% reduction of the reverberation time at the café. The room remains lively yet comfortable for patron communication.

THE TASTING ROOM

A busy tasting room recently expanded into a larger refurbished warehouse space. The bar area consists of high ceilings, a sliding glass garage door and a partial wall that divides the bar area from the active brewery.

The space creates an open yet cozy atmosphere, but the reflective materials, high ceiling, and partial wall were acoustic challenges.
