Nice Côte d’Azur airport — Nice
Design assistance assignment — comfort and safety sound systems for the terminal.
In 2020, Scenarchie was awarded the project management contract for the comfort and safety sound system covering the entirety of Nice Airport. France’s second-largest airport has been equipped since 2022 with a bespoke system, sized through electroacoustic studies on each volume and compliant with the standards in force, notably EN 54.
The design and the electroacoustic simulations were carried out following a series of initial measurements — of reverberation in particular — in order to calibrate the computer simulation against reality with the greatest possible precision.
Nearly 1,500 loudspeakers were thus positioned and carefully selected to ensure compliance with the architectural and acoustic constraints, while significantly improving on the existing installation.
