New Madrid High School Project

Project Overview

Location: New Madrid, Missouri

The library at New Madrid High School once suffered from severe echo issues, making it an unpopular space for students and staff. G&S Architectural Products was brought in to reimagine the room — turning it from an overwhelming environment into a quiet, welcoming refuge for learning and collaboration.
Through a combination of ceiling and wall acoustic treatments, G&S helped eliminate the echo and bring clarity, comfort, and character to the newly revitalized library.

aCapella Scores-Gami panels bring pattern and performance.

Against the back wall of the breakout room, G&S installed aCapella Scores-Gami polyester panels cut in the Ellipticals pattern. Finished in the color Asphalt, these sculptural panels provide added acoustic absorption and introduce a modern, textured design element behind the TV area.

Around the room’s perimeter, a mix of G&S Acoustics Acousti-Panel and Acousti-Image panels were installed. These wall panels deliver high-performance sound absorption while visually tying the library spaces together — supporting quiet study areas and reinforcing the library’s modern, inviting aesthetic.

Acousti-Panel and Acousti-Image panels enhance quiet zones.

Melody aTiles deliver acoustic performance with architectural impact.

To address the library’s large, round ceiling, G&S Acoustics installed Melody aTiles made from high-density polyester. The panels were precision-cut into pie-shaped sections, creating a dynamic visual design while absorbing sound across the open space. Their white finish keeps the room feeling bright and expansive, even as they quiet the previously overwhelming echo.
