Hello everyone,
We currently have two acoustic issues in our newly built house:
1. The large open-plan kitchen and dining area, about 40 sq meters (430 sq ft) with 2.80 meters (9 ft) high ceilings, has poor acoustics with a lot of echo and high noise levels. This is likely due to few walls and a parquet floor, which also reflects sound. Adding curtains and some upholstered chairs improved the situation slightly. A high-pile carpet is still planned. Does anyone have experience with sound absorption materials? For example, pyramid foam / Basotect on walls, ceiling, or under furniture (table, chairs). From your experience, how much surface area needs to be covered to see a noticeable improvement?
Does anyone use or have made their own acoustic panels/images?
2. Because of the open layout, noise from the laundry room and utility room (controlled mechanical ventilation system) can be heard throughout the house. Same question: does anyone have experience with soundproofing elements or insulation for these rooms?
Thanks, regards Andreas

We also had serious concerns after painting our 40m² (430 sq ft) living space. The echo was intense and very unpleasant. However, it completely disappeared once we added furniture and other miscellaneous items.
A good reason to forget about minimalist furnishing and, for example, start a model car or porcelain plate collection.
