ABOUT ACOUSTIC DIMENSIONS

"Architecture used to be a monologue. Now it is a dialogue." —Craig Janssen, Principal, Acoustic Dimensions
“We’re observing the confluence of rapidly rising construction costs and a bigger commitment of resources to missional focus and social issues. Finite resources are going to force churches to build more efficiently. In order to avoid a warehouse look, innovation of design will be essential.” - Craig Janssen, Principal, Acoustic Dimensions
“One of the interesting things to watch will be the shift in the whole architectural design process. Tools like BIM (building information modeling), computerized visualizations, and nontraditional delivery methods are changing the way the buildings are being designed and constructed. The challenge for churches will be to develop decision-making processes that are as efficient as the design process is becoming.” - Craig Janssen, Principal, Acoustic Dimensions
Each room has its own acoustic signature. The shape and volume of the room determine the aural experience within it. Archtiecture is acoustics." --David Kahn, Principal Consultant, Acoustic Dimensions
"If the mission of the organization drives the activities that happen within the space, then the facility needs to be designed to support the activities. It is a mistake to begin discussions about design without first talking about the mission." -- Craig Janssen, Principal, Acoustic Dimensions
"The frightening thought that what you draw will be built and last for generations makes for carefully placed lines." -- Nicholas Edwards, Principal Consultant, Acoustic Dimensions
"The most brilliant design counts for nothing if it is not properly executed. A significant part of Acoustic Dimensions' work is in construction administration, making sure that there is an advocate for acoustics, sound isolation and noise control throughout the project." -- Ronald Eligator, Principal Consultant, Acoustic Dimensions
