The 12,000 square meter research and development facility, located in Minhang, Shanghai's Caohejing Science and Technology Oasis Park, the terrace on the top floor has a distinct form and rhythm. The water curtain glass and spiral staircase are real-world representations of the "water" element, allowing "water" to flow throughout the hall and interior of the entire R&D facility.

Furthermore, the R&D center was designed and built in accordance with LEED Platinum and WELL Platinum green building standards, demonstrating the Group's commitment to sustainable development.

JCK Acoustics provided comprehensive acoustical consulting services for a recent project, from concept design through to the completion of the detailed design stage. Our team conducted early site surveys to assess existing conditions, including external noise sources and internal plantroom spaces. We conducted traffic noise measurements to calibrate our 3D environmental noise model in support of WELL and LEED requirements.

Throughout the design stages, we provided recommendations for interior sound quality, sound isolation, and MEP noise and vibration control, including 3D models, CAD details, material specifications, and progressive document reviews. Our services adhere to strict WELL and LEED requirements.
