NAMM TEC AWARDS SELECTS
TWO WSDG CANDIDATES FOR 2020

Two WSDG projects have been selected as candidates in the 2020 NAMM TEC AWARDS STUDIO DESIGN PROJECT Category.  The presentation is scheduled for January 18, 2020, at the Hilton Pacific Ballroom in Anaheim, USA.  While both studios exemplify WSDG’s distinctive design, acoustical and architectural expertise, they are quite dissimilar in scale, purpose and location.  Leading Manhattan-based Podcast production innovator, Stitcher Studios represents a new level of creative options for the burgeoning Podcast field.

Stitcher Studios - Podcast, New York, USA
The sprawling 8,000 sf. Zhejiang Conservatory Of Music (ZJCM) in Hangzhou represents the epitome of pro audio education for China’s thriving music industry.

A growing slate of new global projects coupled with preparations for the upcoming AES 147th. Convention at New York’s Javits Center (October 16-18, 2019), continue to fuel WSDG’s ongoing drive towards acoustic perfection.  Recent additions to the “approaching completion” section of our Project Summary include:

Architect Nadja Zürcher in cooperation with Vera Gloor AG designed a series of all-glass conference and huddle rooms for a top Zurich-based firm, and commissioned WSDG to do acoustic consulting, treatments and A/V integration for these spaces as well as in the surrounding office space to create rooms that were comfortable to hold meetings and video conferences in, as well as spaces where employees can work comfortably and quietly in the open office space.
NMQ
National Museum of Qatar, Doha, Qatar
The National Museum of Qatar, designed by architect Jean Nouvel, houses a collection of multi-media exhibits that combine video projections and immersive audio for a spellbinding visitor experience.
