A design process consisting of temporal and spatial factors aspects is proposed that blends architectural design with acoustic design. Using. this design process, a multi-purpose event hall, which is a part of a complex architecture, was designed. Acoustic measurements were conducted to obtain temporal and spatial factors in the sound field after construction had been completed, the results of which were favourable. One goal of this project was to solve acoustic problems caused by the round shape of the event hall where the architectural design had already been determined by the theme and concept of the complex. The process is considered to be successful, since the acoustic problems were solved without unduly affecting the architecture of the hall in this worst-case scenario. In addition, new knowledge of methods for solving acoustic problems caused by the round architecture was gained during the design work. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
