Default Bedroom in apartment: Need ideas to buffer sounds from ceiling/neighbors


Otherwise, the general name of a material is good enough.


It's a rental, so I can't go crazy with marring the ceiling. But I
guess I could put in screws that can later be filled in.

I am just going to do something to the bedroom only; roughly a 20 ft.
by 12 ft area.

Whatever ideas people have; don't worry about how it will look; I could
always drape something over whatever work is there.

Thanks A LOT for any input.



Since it's rental you can't modify the building enough to
really matter. What you CAN do is build yourself
a fairly specialized peice of furniture, sort of like
this one:

And soundproof that.


If you go that route, figure out how you're
going to get it out through a 28" basement
doorway when you move, first.
