See full text

A furniture system for influencing the acoustics of a room comprises at least one item of furniture (21 a . . . 21 c) having a substantially cubic shape with four vertical side faces, a horizontal bottom and a horizontal top, wherein at least two, preferably at least three, of the side faces are modified and arranged for sound absorption in such a way that a sound absorption level of the item of furniture (21 a . . . 21 e) assumes its maximum value in a frequency range between 150 and 400 Hz; and at least one planar sound absorber (22, 23, 24) for increasing the sound absorption in a frequency range of above 400 Hz. The modified side faces are preferably designed as perforated panels, in particular as perforated metal plates, with a hole diameter of at least 2 mm each and a degree of perforation of at least 20%, wherein a fibrous material consisting of a porous material having a thickness of at most 1 mm is arranged on at least one side of the perforated panels.
