ACOUSTICS & THE MODERN HUMAN: Sound Elements as Part of a Biophilic Design

TIME: 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM

Course Description:
Rapidly changing trends in our society, such as urbanization and modern lifestyle, have resulted in isolation of humans from our experiences within nature. Early research has shown that psychological effects of biophilic design on noise perception have a significant influence in the well-being and health such as focus, information retention, productivity and creativity. In this course, we will identify these potential problems and the effects of them; as well as outline different corrective actions to mitigate/lessen the issues.
