Grain Valley Schools Leadership Center

AVANT ACOUSTICS team had the pleasure of working with the design team of Hollis+Miller on a new district central office. Great care was taken in the recommendation of modern-styled absorption materials in the Boardroom to ensure great acoustics and high end-aesthetic. State-of-the-art audio and video systems created multi-functional media capabilities throughout the facility.

AVANT ACOUSTICS provided the following services:

  • Acoustical Consulting
  • Audio and Video System Design
  • Sound Masking Design
  • System Commissioning

Project Highlights:

This building also houses the school board meeting room, which has public seating for 200 plus official formal seating for elected officials and other school district leadership.

Several conference rooms and a large training room were also included in the project.  The office areas include a sound masking system to reduce noise distractions, protect speech privacy and increase general office comfort.

Mosaic Life Same-Day Care

Mosaic Life Care’s urgent care facility in St. Joseph, Missouri, provides care and treatment of immediate medical issues, including illness and injury.

AVANT ACOUSTICS provided the following services:

  • Room acoustics consultation
  • Noise control consultation

Project Highlights:

At this Mosaic Life Care facility, noise was being transmitted from the recovery area to the nursing station. In addition to disturbing work, the lack of speech privacy in the recovery area created HIPAA concerns.

AVANT ACOUSTIC conducted a thorough evaluation of the spaces. AVANT recommended ceiling tile replacement, installing sound-absorbing wall panels, and strategically placing glass panels to “acoustically” separate the nursing station from the surrounding patient areas. The glass panels would act as sound barriers, and create a sound-reflective surface to bounce sound back within the nursing station, solving the noise issues in these spaces.
