Acoustic consultant in London

Auris is an independent, design-led acoustic consultancy headquartered in Mayfair, London. We work with architects, interior designers and their clients across the capital, on workplaces, restaurants, homes, cultural venues and more, to make spaces sound as considered as they look.

A London practice with an international outlook

Our headquarters is at 3rd Floor, 45 Albemarle Street, Mayfair, London W1S 4JL. From here we work on projects across London and the UK. With studios in Milan, New York, Dubai and Hong Kong, we also support London-based architects and designers whose projects take them abroad.

• Architectural acoustics. Room acoustics, sound insulation and finishes, from concept to completion.
• Environmental noise and planning. Noise surveys and noise impact assessments for planning applications and conditions with London boroughs.
• Measurement and testing. Site surveys, sound insulation testing and room acoustic measurement.
• Building services noise and vibration. Plant noise, BS 4142 assessments, vibration isolation.
• Acoustic modelling and simulation. Testing design options before they are built.
• Sustainable acoustic design. Acoustic input for BREEAM Hea 05 and LEED.
• Planning and expert advice. Licensing, noise nuisance and appeals.
• Sound system design. Integrated audio for hospitality, retail and venues.

The London context

London's density makes acoustics a design issue on almost every project. Homes sit above restaurants. Offices share party walls with hotels. Plant crowds onto rooftops. Rail and road noise reach well-glazed façades. Many sites are listed buildings or in conservation areas, where conventional acoustic fixes are not an option. Our work is about finding solutions that respect both the building and the people who use it.

Projects we have advised on

London projects where we provided acoustic design advice and consultancy include the Acrisure offices at 40 Leadenhall Street, designed by Oktra, Dock Shed by Conran and Partners, confidential client offices by MF design studio and the AELTC Indoor Tennis Centre. Beyond London, our portfolio spans Tivoli Cinema in Cheltenham, Harrods H Beauty in Essex, workplaces in Milan, New York, Dubai and Abbotsford, and hospitality from Hong Kong International Airport to Sichuan.

Why architects and designers work with us

• Design-led. We start from the design intent and treat acoustics as part of it.
• Independent. Our advice is not tied to a product, contractor or specification route.
• Clear. Our reports and drawings are written for design teams, not only for engineers.
• Joined up. Measurement, modelling and specification sit in one practice.
