Well, I understand all of it but I not exactly agree that I need to convert the room into English grandmother style, of even worst into physical lab. In fact I have seen a few relatively loose rooms that sounded fine and I hope that the specifics of my room would allow me to go away with a need of too heavy treatment. It is obviously the I will need to put more treatment on the walls then I initially expected but I still would like do not go to the extend as Jessie did in the image above.
A few things that I would like to bring up. The grass behind the Macondo is MUCH more affective destroyer of sound then the rest treatment in the entire room. I did not expect it and I thought the glass was too far. In the past I give a lot criticism to the people who put TV between their speakers but the TVs were always between the speakers and they always are effective. In my case the glass 10 feet behind and I thought it will be tolerable – no lack on this – the glass is main offender in my room. I have good blinds to cover the glass. They are thick soft tubes and they cure the sound VERY dramatically. However, the room becomes a bit anticlimacticy-boring with the blinds down....
I began to think about the SOME acoustic treatment treatments that I would use. I do have some idea by my concern is colors. I want only colors that I want. There are companies that do custom colors and custom shapes. This one is for instance.

They do the Ceiling Clouds as well

However, their prices are ridicules. Some wooden diffuser panels that I would like to use are also cost a lot and they are not exactly what I would like to have. So, I wonder if it make sense for me to make my own acoustic treatment. The foam and Styrofoam cutters are very simple to do (hot wire) and I can ask my carpenter to live for me his machines and then I will be able to make my own skyline diffusers by my own specification. I do not know yet, I still am contemplating the options….
