Orfield Laboratories is a Minneapolis multi-sensory design research laboratory consulting in architectural and product development and research. It was founded in 1971 by Steven J Orfield.[1][2] Inside the building is an anechoic chamber that is one of the quietest places on earth, absorbing 99.9% of sound. The room attracts media attention and inspires rumors and speculation about the psychological effects of spending time in silence.[3]
