What does healthy architecture mean?

Wednesday, Jun 1, 2022

Healthy architecture is an aesthetically pleasing sustainable ideology that architects incorporate in their design. Reduced noise not only improves well-being but also improves health. This indicates that architecture plays an important role: it not only protects individuals inside the structure from outside elements but also contributes to their overall health in UAE, Qatar and Kuwait.

Healthy acoustic architecture depends on various factors, such as product sustainability and NRC levels. To be environmentally friendly, the acoustic solution must be as natural as possible. A sustainable practise considers the natural resources used and their environmental impact. These materials are long-lasting, recyclable, and reusable. A LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) certificate for a product is a recognized symbol of sustainability achievement and leadership. Architects strive for LEED credits at all times, and Baswa Acoustic is LEED certified.

NRC level test measures the average rating of how much sound an acoustic product can absorb. These ratings range from 0 to 1. An NRC of 0 means the product does not absorb any sound, whereas an NRC of 1 means the product absorbs sound well. The industry standard NRC rating is .85, However, when applied, Baswa acoustic can achieve NRC level of up to .95.
