sound Sound is a spatial event, a material phenomenon and an auditive experience rolled into one. It can be described using the vectors of distance, direction and location. Within architecture, every built space can modify, position, reflect or reverberate the sounds that occur there. Sound embraces and transcends the spaces in which it occurs, opening up a consummate context for the listener: the acoustic source and its surroundings unite into a unique auditory experience.

Everything that goes into our ears is called sound. Sound is a vibration that propagates as an acoustic wave, travel through a medium such as a gas, liquid or solid. Our ears let us hear everything around and let us knows what goes on around. The human ear certainly have limitations in hearing. Sound waves with a too low frequency for the human ear to hear are called infrasound. While sound waves with a frequency that too high for the human ear to hear is called ultrasound.

Volume (also called loudness) relates to the maximum pressure produced as particles are squeezed together as they are made to vibrate. This is also related to the maximum distance particles are moved from their normal position as they vibrate. When you show sound waves on a graph, the amplitude is the height of the waves from their middle position and reflects how loud the waves are.
11
how loud is too loud? The maximum safe exposure limit that human ear can handle is around 85 dB. Excessive exposure to levels above that can cause headaches, nausea, and hearing damage

Noises, sounds, music – are not perceived by the ear alone. Their effect on the human body goes beyond even the stimulation of the other sensory organs. Acoustic vibrations transmit impulses that obtrude and invade the body and its tissues; they are not only processed on a conscious level, but can also provoke unconscious psychological and uncontrollable physiological reactions.
15
how sound affects school Minimizing external noise is important in classrooms, libraries and other study environments. Unfortunately, these buildings often have noise. Controlling the transfer of noise from other classrooms and from outdoors is particularly important here
16
studies have shown that excess noise in classrooms contributes to lower test scores for students reduce disturbing noise levels so that students can understand their instrucstors and peers clearly

sound behaviour
18
A concave surface causes the reflected sound to be focussed
A convex surface causes the reflected sound to be scattered

study precedent Acoustic Shell Flanagan Lawrence 2014 Sited in a sunken garden beside the beach in Littlehampton, West Sussex, UK, these ‘Acoustic Shells’ act as a stage and shelter for the local community. Prompted by a desire to reinvigorate Littlehampton with its gentility of the early 20th century, the shells materially enhance the public open space of the adjacent greensward, and satisfy an essential social need that is not provided elsewhere in the area.
20
21
The concept for the shells is derived from the notion of a traditional bandstand; following the industrial Revolution and worsening conditions in urban areas, bandstands were conceived as a response by local authorities to an increased need for green open spaces where the general public could relax.
22
23
concrete
The shell structures have been created without formwork with the concrete sprayed directly on to the reinforcement mesh. The majority of the concrete shell is only 100mm thick and relies on the double curved geometry to span the stage.
24
study precedent Teshima Art Museum Ryue Nishizawa 2010 Uniting the creative visions of artist Rei Naito and architect Ryue Nishizawa, Teshima Art Museum stands on a hill on the island of Teshima overlooking the Seto Inland Sea. The museum, which resembles a water droplet at the moment of landing, is located in the corner of a rice terrace that was restored in collaboration with local residents.
25
26
The open gallery space features 25cm thick concrete shell with two elliptical openings that are open to elements. the white concrete pod shell is devoid of any pillars or visible structural aid. the gallery space is not a result of encapsulation but a careful negotiation between the earth and the sky. visitors are encouraged to freely walk around the 40 by 60 meter museum and connect with the present phenomena.
27
schools program This school applies “Student centered learning” as its pedagogy approach and implements “Outdoor learning system” to its learning environment, where students plays a bigger role giving the students opportunities to lead learning activities where one has flexibility to work in smaller group or else.

noise acceptances
36
all the programs is arranged in such a way based on its noise acceptances. the more private an area is, the lower the noise tolerance and vice versa

activities this school provides smaller group activities such as individual learning area where one can find calmness and bigger group where people can gathered around 86

connectivity beside physical connectivity, the inner courtyard provide visual connectivity the biggest. hence the inner courtyard visually unites the entire school 89
nature element this building has one rooftop on the top of the building where pupils can do such outdoor activities that needed the nature. on the ground level placed one humongous inner courtyard where nature element can be found such as trees 90

92
sun exposure the wide opening in the middle is where the sun penetrates its ray the most. causing the courtyard placed right under the opening 93
acoustic this building acoustics is divided into two, preventing the noises to the resident area and diffusing the noises from the main road, hence there are two types of sphere cut’s. 94

the most used materials in this massing is precast concrete (according to the shell study material). grass as a tactile at outdoor area. and glass as a complementary materials

conclusion Sound as spatial event itself can determine how we as a human being do our daily activities and vice versa. Within architecture, every built space can modify, position, reflect or reverberate the sounds that occur there Sound & space is a form where a learning space placed in between two diferrent site conditions; residential as a calm area and main road as a noise area hence the buildings needs to reconcile into the site.
