We are excited to present the detailed acoustic design for the Qassim University Auditorium, a space designed to achieve optimal sound performance while maintaining architectural elegance. This project showcases our dedication to merging functional excellence with aesthetic sophistication, creating a conference hall that sets new standards in acoustic performance for educational institutions.
Our design philosophy centers around rhythm within chaos—a balance between structured acoustic design and dynamic architectural expression. The Monacoustic Linear Series Acoustic Panels installed on the walls feature varied groove styles, appearing random at first glance, yet following a meticulously calculated rhythm. This approach ensures optimal sound diffusion, creating a harmonious blend of design and acoustic functionality for lecture halls, auditoriums, and multi-purpose spaces.
The grey-toned color palette reinforces a modern, sophisticated ambiance, making the hall not just acoustically optimized but also visually striking.

An auditorium is only as good as its seating. That’s why we selected the Simko Safir 02 VIP auditorium seats, a premium choice designed for long-lasting comfort and sophistication. These seats offer:
With these high-end auditorium seats, the space effortlessly balances luxury, functionality, and longevity—ensuring that every occupant, whether student, professor, or guest, enjoys the event in absolute comfort.
The Monacoustic Linear Series Acoustic Panels weren’t just chosen for their aesthetic appeal—they play a crucial role in shaping the acoustic character of the space. By combining different groove styles, the panels create a dynamic surface that scatters sound evenly, eliminating unwanted reflections and improving speech clarity.
This meticulously calculated panel arrangement enhances both the auditory experience and the visual depth of the auditorium, making the space acoustically optimized without sacrificing architectural beauty.
Flooring plays a more significant role in acoustics than most people realize. To enhance both sound absorption and user comfort, we installed Florone Ambition carpet tiles, which offer:
These carpet tiles work silently in the background, absorbing sound and creating a quieter, more focused environment for lectures and presentations.
To ensure a balanced sound environment, we integrated Knauf Cleaneo Akustik perforated gypsum boards, specifically the circular perforation model. These panels were selected for their:
Together, the walls, ceiling, and flooring create a perfectly calibrated acoustic environment, where every sound is precise, controlled, and immersive.
The result of this project is more than just an auditorium—it’s a carefully curated performance space where acoustics and architecture work together seamlessly. Every aspect, from the seating to the wall panels, flooring, and ceiling treatments, has been optimized to:
✅ Enhance speech clarity and sound distribution
✅ Minimize unwanted echoes and background noise
✅ Provide superior audience comfort with premium seating
✅ Maintain a visually sophisticated and inviting atmosphere
This project is a testament to Qassim University’s commitment to excellence—a space designed not only to host academic events but to elevate the auditory experience for every listener.
At The Acoustic Design, we believe that great spaces deserve great sound. This project reflects our ongoing mission to create architecturally stunning, acoustically refined environments that leave a lasting impact.
