NOISY IN MANILA

hindi ka ba nabibingi?

Introduction

The Philippines, especially its big cities, is quite a lively but boisterous scene. It is more surprising to have a quiet day than a day filled with noise from the streets, the neighbors’ parties, and the on-going and never-ending road or water construction down the street This shared experience is how the researchers were led to the production of the Soundud – a modular soundproofing panel with a purpose to provide another high-quality soundproofing option in the local market that’s easy to buy and easy to apply for residential spaces. Derived from its name, the Soundud is created to cancel out noise and let its mission to be a pollutant and public nuisance fail

Background Of The Study

City living, work-from-home conditions, condominium life and other residential related instances denote exposure to noise pollution whether by traffic, neighborhood or industrial noise Nonetheless, there is a scarcity in terms of sound proofing sources in the Philippines locally To pursue quietness by design, our task is to provide more options of sound proofing that are accessible, aesthetic and affordable to the masses, and simultaneously be sustainable with our chosen materials.
