Bisley with OnOffice roundtable discussion

Sep 11, 2019|

On 11th September, Bisley will be hosting a roundtable discussion with OnOffice at our Dallington Street showroom.

The topic of the discussion will be Workplace Acoustics. Bisley’s Dallington Street showroom will be welcoming experienced and knowledgeable Architecture directors and acoustic specialists to discuss what they think of open-plan spaces and whether acoustic spaces are needed for employee wellbeing and health.

This discussion will be a closed roundtable but will be reported in OnOffice magazine and will cover:

  • Is it time to bring back the cubicle?
  • How do you design a workplace with acoustics at its core?
  • Does noise pollution cause stress?
  • What is the optimum sound level?
  • How exactly does noise affect employee wellbeing?
