Truly a castle in a very rural area, this 31,000-square-foot residence was built for entertaining, fundraisers, and more. SHA provided acoustic design for an avant-garde cinema, two-story library, and one of the largest residential ballrooms ever created. The ballroom utilized a combination of stretched digitally-imaged fabric over sound-absorbing insulation and seamless acoustic plaster to allow the reverberation of this monumental space to be tamed enough to host live music and presentation events for up to 300 to 400 people.
