Munich RE undertook a renovation of its Plaza 3 offices in Princeton, New Jersey. The project included our acoustical review and recommendations for architecture and interior finishes for the conference center and fitness center, as well as indoor and outdoor mechanical equipment.
Working with the design team, we provided recommendations on glass fronts and doors to achieve desired levels of acoustical privacy at the conference and multi-purpose room in the conference center. We advised on partition assemblies that would provide the level of sound separation commensurate with MunichRe’s expectations for the various spaces. We also reviewed proposed ceiling finishes to confirm suitable levels of sound absorption would be provided. On the mechanical side, we established criteria for the outdoor equipment to comply with NJ township noise ordinance. Our recommendations optimized the acoustics throughout the renovated spaces and work environments making employees’ time at the office more comfortable and productive.
