The study of architectural acoustics is a three‐dimensional endeavor. Sound moves in Cartesian space, in real rooms, and through planes that typically don’t precisely align with section and plan cuts.
But architectural acoustics also maintains the three dimensions loudness, frequency, and time, which, for reader ownership of subject content, must be evaluated simultaneously. Thus, the study of architectural acoustics is itself an act of architecture—and architectural acoustics, as discussed in this event, sits under the broader umbrella of design
