| Company profile |
Having cultivated our expertise over nearly 50 years, Jaffe Holden is the leading provider of acoustic design, audio/video and IT infrastructure services for performing arts, educational and cultural spaces.
Simply put, organizations and architects rely on our know-how to get the most sensory value from their projects.
Our consulting services cover all phases of your project, from pre-design and design to construction and post-opening. Whether you're addressing the needs of a performing arts center, educational facility or
museum, we'll ensure that the project meets its acoustic design potential.
Room Acoustic Design
Aural variables like reverberation time, sound reflection and loudness levels can greatly impact a space. In fact, poorly designed aural environments can create discomfort, diminish learning ability, and result
in poor user experiences. We begin by evaluating the needs and function of a space, reviewing room volume and geometry, as well as the selection and placement of materials for walls, floors and ceilings. We
then develop and analyze comprehensive models to determine the most appropriate configuration to address room requirements. This process allows us to deliver acoustic design recommendations that meet
our exacting standards, control variables, and create the desired aural outcome in each space.
Building Sound Isolation
Unwanted sound and vibration can originate from both inside and outside of a building, compromising the acoustics of a space. We uncover ways to control sound from outside and from within by separating
noise-generating equipment, activities or functions from each other within the building.
MEP Noise and Vibration Control
Noise and vibration from nearby mechanical, electrical and plumbing equipment diminish sensory experiences. Our consultants analyze sources such as fans and electrical devices, determine their impact, and
develop recommendations to enhance the desired acoustical functionality of projects.
Audio and Video Systems Design
The integration of acoustic design with audio and video technology helps enhance spaces through a combination of natural and amplified sound. Our state-of-the-art audio and video system designs prioritize
flexible, user-friendly control systems appropriate for your project. As a result, we're able to seamlessly incorporate audio and video to support learning, discovery, and enjoyment for students, visitors,
and audiences alike.
Information Technology Infrastructure Design
Our planning and infrastructure designs address the three major technology system design challenges that arise in every project: integration, management, and adaptability. Our drawings and specifications
cover everything from system integration to space planning and common cable requirements for low voltage systems. |
