Creating multifunctional spaces sounds so simple but may be a true challenge in times of permanent change. Responding to this with creativity has always been a key strength of USM. For almost 60 years, we have celebrated modularity and fluidity – the ability to adapt to evolving needs at any time; the ability to provide agile yet longlasting solutions for multifunctional, hybrid spaces.

Acoustics is a complex and extremely important issue, especially in the workplace, where new ways of working and open plan spaces are becoming increasingly popular. This brochure aims to answer relevant questions, define key terms and provide examples of acoustically enhanced USM Modular Furniture Haller and USM Privacy Panels that complement architectural design.
