How to Reduce Sound in a Room
Tired of every little sound reverberating around your room? Whether it’s a bedroom, playroom, or an open-concept space, you can quiet things down with no renovations needed.
Usually, rooms sound loud because they have a lot of hard surfaces. These surfaces typically bounce noise around and can make it seem like more than it is. The simplest solution is to reduce the amount of hard, flat surfaces in the space and increase soft ones; here are a few easy ways to do that!
