Content Description

Acoustics and the Modern Human: Sound Elements as Part of Biophilic Design, 2024
CEU: 0.1 | CEU Code: CA-EN-160305-0325

Rapidly changing trends in our society, such as urbanization and a modern lifestyle, have resulted in the isolation of humans from experiences within nature. Research has shown that the psychological effects of biophilic design on noise perception have a significant influence on the well-being and health of humans. In this course, we review the science of sound, identify the potential problems associated with noise, and introduce the range of acoustic solutions formed from polyethylene terephthalate (PET) felt designed to provide sound-dampening benefits for busy commercial, educational, and healthcare facilities.

Learning Objectives

  • Define the term biophilic design and how it relates to human well-being.
  • Identify the positive and negative physiological and psychological effects of noise and sound on humans.
  • Discuss the science of sound, reverberation, and echo and their relationship to human cognition.
  • Explore the range of innovative acoustic applications for walls, ceilings, workstations, lighting, and storage designed to reduce unwanted noise and elevate the acoustic properties of any space.
