We're very pleased with our CH acoustics. I think the 2 most important factors are our Tectum ceiling and our behavior expectations in the dining room during meals: eating and quiet conversation are welcome; playing, running, yelling, etc. should be taken outside or to the rec room. I have a daughter (7) and two sons (5 & 3) and think these expectations are very realistic. We also have a cork floor in our dining room and kitchen, which probably helps a little with the acoustics. - Mac P.S. Rob, I don't think you mentioned if you're working on designing a yet to be built CH or trying to 'fix' an existing one. -- Mac Thomson Heartwood Cohousing Southwest Colorado http://www.heartwoodcohousing.com "Gratitude is Heaven itself." - William Blake ********************************************************** On 10/04/03 Rob James wrote: > Does anyone have experience in effective means to reduce the noise level > in common houses, ...other than banishing > the children?
