acoustic reflex (ə-küs-tik rē-fleks):
An involuntary muscle contraction that occurs in the middle ear in response to high intensity sound stimuli.
The Barbican Acoustic Reflex Collection acts to provide a similar defense to loud environments. Concrete interiors, exposed industrial ceilings, and other hard surfaces offer a contemporary feel but can often accentuate noises and create an echo. Acoustic Reflex by Barbican provides a solution by offering high quality, eco-friendly materials that absorb sound, establishing comfortable noise levels in a space. Using a unique proprietary adhesive that is repositionable and invisible to the eye, AR enables beautiful designs on almost any smooth surface.
Use full length pieces to mimic designer wallpaper (with our print technique), or take advantage of our precision cutting to create shapes, patterns, logos, privacy panels, or other creative options that will add original beauty, functionality, and acoustic control. To maximize sound absorption in a space, combine with our other Acoustic Reflex products. Create your own customized Quietude.
