The profession’s dilemma
You’ve created the perfect venue. Every material has been carefully chosen, every line thought through. Then the venue operator installs their sound system: equipment placed wherever there’s space left, cables, compromises. The venue you’ve designed is no longer quite your own.
Sound is the only sensory element that the profession has not yet mastered at the design stage. This ebook sets out a method for addressing this.
25 pages, 8 chapters, one method
To feel
Sound, the final element in your projects: how it affects the perception of a place, a sense of presence and behaviour.
Understanding
The architect’s dilemma (to reveal or to conceal: two compromises) and the material as a sound diffuser, illustrated by a schematic cross-section.
Design
The elements of integration (built environment, furniture, objects), the step-by-step method from initial sketch to final handover, and three case studies with commentary: lobby, table, suite.
Listen
TechnoSound Studio: one team, one approach, one method. And the next step for your next project.
