The underground exhibition hall features a so-called excavation landscape modelled on an archaeological dig. It tells the story of the people of Westphalia as revealed to archaeologists directly in the ground – from the first traces 250,000 years ago to the present day.
As part of the special exhibition ‘Hilm Böckmann – Retrospective’, 2.5 m, 3 m and 3.5 m high Mila-wall partitions were arranged to create an attractive interior. These temporary exhibition rooms served as the basis for an impressive demonstration of reverberation reduction using acoustic walls from the Mila-wall Acoustic series. In a simulation by the Fraunhofer Institute for Building Physics (Fraunhofer IBP), normal Mila-wall partitions were compared with Mila-wall Acoustic. The sound reduction is clearly audible. The results can be found in the charts below. An acoustic comparison can be heard on the product page for the acoustic wall and in the video below.
