I designed this furniture for home studios, its from a series of pieces, and the concept is to turn normal rooms in a house into usable recording space.
however, in many modern building the acoustics are so bad as to make the rooms unpleasant to be in, so there are likely many other houses and offices that could benefit from this book case.
this is a bookcase, but its also acoustic treatment. the gaps between the shelves, and the space at the back form a slat diffuser. (which reduces echo). one advantage of this design is that the books should actually improve the effectiveness of the treatment
the gaps between the shelves can be sized to tune the bookcase to different sized rooms, providing a even better result.
the fact is that the most inaccessible part of a studio for most people is the recording rooms. The requirement that the rooms be mostly empty for traditional acoustic treatment to work is a major factor in that inaccessibility.
By building acoustic treatment that serves a dual purpose the hope is that good recording space can be more accessible, and further that the space will be more pleasant to live in
