Soften acoustic panels soften the sound environment of Finnish Osuuspankki-bank offices. Softens acoustic panels have been chosen to be a part of the negotiation room-concept of OP-Pohjola bank offices. The acoustic panels are used as wall material in the negotiation rooms. They were chosen due to the good absorption quality, but also domestic quality, ecological aspect, recycled material and appearance had a great influence in decision making. Soften acoustic panels cover two of the walls in a negotiation room. Due to their sound absorbing quality they soften the sound environment in the office. Panels avoid the sounds from spreading to other rooms and spaces effectively, and there is no restless, echoing noise effect, which is very typical for public spaces. Soft sound environment gives an opportunity to discuss about important personal things confidentially. Peaceful sound environment is very important also seen from the well-being point of view of the personnel. The pure forms and discreet colors make the room esthetically pleasant and peaceful. Soften acoustic panels are already being used in several OP-Pohjola bank offices throughout Finland.
