STUDIO
design >
One-room environment, designed by Nicolas Grou (Grantham Acoustique), and built from the ground up with giant bass traps and reflective / absorbent / diffusing elements embedded in all parts of the structure, resulting in a very neutral sound, perfect for recording, mixing and mastering.
An attracting mixture of woods, concrete, bricks, glass, stucco, textiles, furniture and lighting gives the room a "luxury chalet" look and feel.
