An independent acoustic consultancy and design practice

Auris is an independent acoustic consultancy and design practice. We work with architects, interior designers and their clients to ensure that acoustic performance is resolved with the same care as form, material and light.

The practice was founded on a simple observation: many spaces look considered but sound unfinished. Good design should be complete. We bring measurement, modelling and material knowledge into the design process early enough for it to shape the outcome, rather than correct it later.

We work internationally, with studios in London, Milan, New York, Dubai and Hong Kong. This allows us to collaborate across time zones and building cultures while maintaining a consistent approach. Being independent means our advice is not tied to a particular product, contractor or specification route. We understand the market and the products available within it, and we use that knowledge to recommend what is appropriate — or to design something specific when the market does not already provide it.

Our work spans workplaces, hospitality, performance spaces, education, residential interiors and specialist environments. In every case the focus remains the same: the experience of the people who will use the space. We measure, model and specify so that the acoustic result supports the design intent and the needs of its end users.

Whether the brief is a new building, the adaptation of an existing one, or the design of a single statement element, we treat acoustic performance as an integral part of the design rather than a separate technical exercise.
