Sound and architecture always go together. There is often a correlation between the function of a place or object and the sound we expect from it. It is therefore important that architects, urban planners, planners and landscape architects think about the sounds that arise from the new situation as a result of their design.

Sounds affect our state of mind differently depending on whether they are pleasant or annoying. Chronic environmental noise causes a wide range of adverse health effects, including sleep disorders, stress, and cardiovascular disease. A desirable sound in a certain situation may be out of place in another. Therefore, it is important that the sound matches the function of the environment. Well designed environments with complementing sounds increases the chance of interaction and connection between people. Feeling in control of the soundscape can have a significantly positive impact on the well-being of the users of the public space.
