Noise Barrier

A noise barriers design for both road users and the neighbourhood in the vicinity and blending with the surrounding environment. To minimise construction cost, the main structure is merely a weaving light weight steel structure with different infill for various purposes: vegetation planter made from recycled plastic bottle, PV, glass skylights and solid panels.


Taking these form of Acoustic Foam, the perforated material with modulated surfaces help break down and absorb sound. Environmentally, the PV infill generate and store electricity for road lights on the barrier and its surrounding highway area while vegetation infill reduces heat radiation from the highway.


This project is now being realised in Hong Kong with the government.
