Top SchoolArthur Van Der Harten is an acoustics engineer and founder with 11 years of professional experience designing high-profile performance and cultural spaces worldwide, including projects in Melbourne, Antwerp, and Fort Worth. He leads acoustical consulting at TLC Engineering Solutions while also authoring Pachyderm Acoustic, the first professional-grade open-source acoustical simulation tool that operates inside CAD platforms like Rhinoceros and has become popular among designers and educators. In 2019 he founded a 501(c)(3) nonprofit to broaden access to advanced acoustical knowledge and advocate for better global soundscapes. Trained in architecture and acoustics (M.Arch, RPI), he blends hands-on room-acoustic design, noise control, and simulation expertise with software engineering and scientific computing. Arthur’s atypical combination of deep consultancy experience, open-source tool development, and nonprofit leadership makes him equally at home designing concert halls and building community around acoustic literacy.
