Quantock Restaurant
The problem: Located within Somerset University’s campus, the Quantock restaurant faced a classic acoustic dilemma. Its tall glass windows, sleek floorboards, and open kitchen and bar created a reverberant environment. Excessive noise levels disrupted the dining experience, making the space uncomfortable for students and visitors alike.
Room Type: Restaurant
Location: Banbury
Our solution
To address these challenges, Resonics installed a comprehensive acoustic ceiling system using Autex Frontier Baffles. The design and installation focused on:
Minimising Noise: The Class A acoustic baffles significantly reduced reverberation by absorbing sound waves bouncing off hard surfaces.
Blending with Design: The Quietspace Frontier system complemented the exposed soffit and seamlessly integrated with pre-existing ceiling services, maintaining the restaurant’s modern aesthetic.
Custom Configuration: The baffles were strategically placed to maximise acoustic performance without compromising the visual openness of the space.

The Outcome
The acoustic improvements brought a dramatic reduction in noise levels, transforming the Quantock restaurant into a more enjoyable dining environment.
With enhanced sound clarity, diners can now converse comfortably, and the space is better suited for both bustling lunch hours and quieter dining experiences.
