Welcome to the kbbreview Podcast, this is episode 12 of season 4 and your host as always is Andy Davies.

This week we’re talking about noise - more precisely the noise that all the stuff in your house, and of course your client’s houses, make. Beeping dishwashers, spinning washing machines, humming fridges, flushing toilets, boilers firing up, extractors …extracting.

The background noise of our homes has never been more apparent than when we were forced to live AND work there and there is a lot of evidence to suggest that it directly affects our health and wellbeing.

If you are a designer or retailer do you ever discuss noise with your clients? Do you ever truly consider the acoustics of a room in your project designs when it comes to specifying products.

It’s such an interesting untapped area for design so we’re meeting Poppy Szkiler, who is the founder of Quiet Mark, the organisation that certifies the quietness of products.
