How to balance aesthetics and sound absorption with ceiling baffles?

Balancing aesthetics and acoustic performance in ceiling baffles involves aligning material choices with design intent. At PRANCE, we start by defining acoustic targets—such as target reverberation time or NRC value—alongside visual goals for color, pattern, and rhythm.

Baffle geometry (height, width, spacing) directly affects absorption. Taller, denser arrays capture more sound but may appear heavy. We counterbalance this by varying baffle profiles—using slender, high-reflectance finishes or perforated surfaces that lighten visual weight. Perforated baffles with acoustic infill achieve absorption without solid mass.


Finish selection also plays a role. Matte or textured powder coats reduce glare, while metallic anodized finishes reflect light and create dynamic shading. Color gradients or alternating baffle heights introduce visual interest without compromising performance.


Mock-up panels allow designers to assess the interplay of light, shadow, and acoustics in real space. By iterating on baffle dimensions and finishes, PRANCE ensures the final ceiling is both a striking architectural feature and an effective sound control solution.
