BDB Musikakademie, Staufen

Germany GermanyContractors: Günter Nagel Bauleistungsservice GmbH

Project description

The new building of the BDB Music Academy in Staufen is aimed at the creation of space for performances, rehearsals, and seminars with the highest acoustic standard while providing accommodation for students. The project was complex, requiring profound knowledge and craftmanship in sound absorption and reflection. Günter Nagel Bauleistungsservice GmbH and his excellent team developed perfect conditions for curtain rails, acoustic elements, inspection openings, and ventilation ducts. They focused on sound insulation requirements for partition walls and ceilings, static requirements, and ceiling weight. Rigips Rigitone® Activ’ Air® 8/18 R tiles met all requirements, ensuring excellent acoustic quality.
