ARCHITECTURE, ACOUSTIC, ELECTROACOUSTIC, ACADEMY AND PSYCHOACOUSTIC.
Under a structure led by an open but disciplined mindset, we have managed to contribute to different cities, not just with a solution but a lifestyle, from conception to completion, balancing the essential elements of a successful project: its utility, its style, and its contribution to the development of various cultural fields. At Psicoacústica, our leadership is to listen, as each project is a unique portrait, inspired by the dreams of our clients.
Whether a simple place or a space with high responsibility, we work globally with a great vision to implement the best solutions, following practice and regulations, but under a code that develops freely and naturally.
Our fundamental basis in design is sound, and with this, we study the reaction it produces in the human body, investigating its physical-mental and physical-corporal response, analyzing the different consequences that occur with the interpretation of speech, musical interpretation (combinations of sound with an aesthetically pleasant sense to the ear), or noise emission (excessive and annoying sound). Based on this study, we achieve different solutions for an architectural, acoustic, electroacoustic, or psychoacoustic project.
We create projects that provide auditory health, leading humans to a culture of Acoustic Ecology. For this reason, Psicoacústica uses this knowledge to propose effective solutions from the sound source, raising awareness among our clients, enriching them with workshops and seminars, accompanied by electroacoustic works (sound or sound systems), acoustic designs (architectural design, isolation, and acoustic treatments according to the space), and general and specialized architectural designs (residential, corporate, and cultural).
We have experience in a wide range of projects, from large to small, specializing in the integration of various disciplines in design. From a chair, a wall, a material, a room, to complex spaces in their structure (auditoriums, churches, theaters, hotels, corporate buildings, restaurants), we treat them all equally. The limitations of each one are the seeds of inspiration for developing the solution.
INNOVATION WITH ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE, VIRTUAL REALITY, AND AUGMENTED REALITY
At Psicoacústica, we stay at the forefront of technology by integrating artificial intelligence (AI), virtual reality (VR), and augmented reality (AR) into our projects. These technologies allow us to:
- Advanced Simulation: We have created our own GPT with closed coding, working with NVIDIA GPUs for processes and calculations. We have been training our GPT to develop and support our projects, achieving the prediction and optimization of acoustic behavior in different environments.
- Immersive Experiences: We are implementing VR and AR so our clients can experience and visualize the acoustic impact and architectural design before construction. From our lab, we simulate the space virtually to verify the different disciplines that accompany our projects, and then take our design to the physical project site to recreate its form within the already built structure.
- Process Optimization: Using all our AI, VR, and AR tools, we improve our design and analysis processes, ensuring more precise and efficient solutions.
VIDEO GAMES AND INTERACTIVE SIMULATIONS
At Psicoacústica, we also explore the fascinating world of video games and interactive simulations, integrating various disciplines such as artistic lighting, video, sound systems, and acoustic auralization. We design video games that simulate real life, allowing users to interact with virtual environments immersively. These experiences are manageable from external devices and are designed to offer exceptional realism and sound quality, thanks to our advanced auralization and acoustic modeling techniques.
We are dedicated to creating virtual environments that not only entertain but also educate and raise awareness about the importance of acoustics in everyday life. With each project, we aim to offer a unique experience that combines cutting-edge technology with our deep understanding of acoustics and sound.
We know and believe that good ideas can come from anywhere and unlock the creative process, inspiring us through our thoughts, collaborators, and various elements outside our laboratory.
"We are an open-source design firm, where all ideas are created equally, but only the strongest survive our filter. We enjoy unlocking creative processes by placing ourselves against greater obstacles to release an inspiration made of sound."
