The world’s leading company in sustainable acoustic innovations, Vicoustic, is improving the office acoustics at Avila Spaces, elected the Best Cowork in the World.

Vicoustic joined forces with Avila Spaces to develop the room acoustic treatment at an auditorium and open office, and introduce a VicBooth Office Phone Booth in their coworking space, in Parque das Nações, Lisbon, Portugal.

Best Cowork at Global Startup Awards

Avila Spaces was recognized in 2023 as the Best Cowork in the World at the Global Startup Awards. With three locations in Lisbon - Saldanha, Avenida da República, and Parque das Nações - it is one of the oldest, most recognized, and awarded co-working Flexoffices in Europe and the most awarded in Portugal.

Vicoustic is a worldwide renowned manufacturer of acoustic solutions that takes its sound treatment expertise to the offices of Avila Spaces. Following a detailed acoustic treatment case study by professional Acousticians and Designers, an auditorium and open office of Avila’s latest coworking space, in Edificio Expo, Lisbon, was treated with sustainable acoustic panels (Flat Panel VMT), mostly produced from recycled plastic bottles. 

A reference in sound insulation, a VicBooth Office Phone Booth was also installed in the building, allowing users to find a private space for their phone calls or videoconferences, in a quiet and good-sounding environment. With this collaboration, Vicoustic and Avila Spaces are showcasing the importance of room acoustics and sound insulation in workspaces and offices. 

“Vicoustic panels guarantee us the highest quality standards”

"Vicoustic is an international reference in the furniture and acoustic materials field, so we are very proud to establish this partnership. With the growth of remote meetings and the massification of videoconferencing, comfortable ‘phone booths’ are essential with all the privacy conditions for our clients. With the growth of shared workspaces, it is important that we acoustically treat the rooms. Vicoustic panels guarantee us the highest quality standards, while also meeting our requirements from an environmental sustainability point of view, which is increasingly valued by our clients. Being a Portuguese company with a strong international presence, this collaboration agreement makes even more sense." 

Carlos Gonçalves, CEO of Avila Spaces

“A relaxed and unpretentious workspace that feels like home”

“We first met Carlos Gonçalves when Avila Spaces was a startup, and immediately fell in love with his vision and concept. His attention to details, and making sure acoustics and design are just right to create a perfect environment, was the catalyst for our companies to connect. It's a hard task to combine a relaxed and unpretentious workspace that feels just like home, and no one in the coworking business is doing it so well as Avila Spaces. Well done Avila Spaces, for all National and International achievements.”

César Carapinha, CEO of Vicoustic

Vicoustic is pleased to recommend Avila Spaces as the premier co-working solution for anyone looking for workspaces in Lisbon.
