Discuss a project

Context

A sound-system project for a bar and restaurant where dining, conversation and music share the same room. Working with @mliaudio, I contributed to the design and installation, followed by on-site tuning. The room’s use shaped the sound design and how the installation was approached.

Problem

The room needed to support dining and music without one overpowering the other.

System

We designed the sound system around how the room was actually used.

Decisions

I ran the project, coordinating the audio work with @mliaudio and delivering the installation as one complete job rather than a series of visits.

Execution

We installed and tuned on site.

Result

The paid installation was delivered.

Where this transfers

Two things sharing one room is a design problem, not a volume problem. The same move applies to a page with two calls to action, or a schedule serving two audiences.
