This shell created a strong reverb effects in its cavity. The sounds of panpipe and guitar became ethereal and fluid. The accompaniment became downy. The sound was not trapped in cavity. Instead, the “processed� music flowed out.
The guitar kept the quality and volume But, the sound of panpipe was amplified and rounded. It became louder and mellow. Guitar as accompaniment blended well with panpipe.
The song was slightly amplified. In terms of the quality, just a super slight improvement on timbre can be perceived.
The model restored the sounds and layers of drums, pedals and cymbals. I can feel the spread of reflected sounds from the cavity of the shell. But compared to other groups of models, its refinement on the songs was not that big.
Amplified the sound especially the vocal and guitar. The sound of drum was amplified as well and well balanced with cymbals and vocal, which empowered the rhythm of melody. High pitches were no longer harsh and became round.
The vocal was amplified effectively. The sounds of drums and cymbals were split up from a blurred condition. The texture of rhythm was clearer.
The soprano became sharper and thinner. Basso part became thicker and elastic. The chords blended well. The notes bounced in the cavity of the shell.
The sound indeed became solid and amplified. But it does not seem to change too much compared to other two songs.
The basso was amplified to the level that can be harmonious with alto. The sound became rounder than that in previous model

In Orchestra, the sound of harp and acoustic guitar was fuzzy, rough but became mellow. The accents made by guitar were enhanced, which improved the rhythm.
The shell created reverb effects and amplified the music. The sounds were trapped in the dome. High frequent sound like panpipe was amplified greatly. Feels like the sound can be reflected strongly but the speed of bounces was slower due to the increase of height.
Highly increased the volume. The sounds spreading out the shell were uniform and soft.
Drums sounded empowered, which enhanced the sense of rhythm. Guitar sounded clearer and its distortion became compact, plumb and saturated. The vocal & yell became very thin and sharp, as if frequency became higher
All sounds was concentrated in the center of the dome. The sound of guitar turned dull and toneless. The vocal and cymbals became sharper but not as sharp as those in previous shell.
The drums were amplified. The clarity of rhythm and beat became clearer. The vocal turned mellow. The saturation of distortion increased. But the texture and articulation of this song did not perform well in this shell.
The strums became elastic. The sound from the strings became a little metallic. The texture of soprano, alto and basso weaved together. The sound became solid and thicker. The sense of the vibration of strings was restored perfectly.
The texture of cellos were restored perfectly. The sense of vibration of the string became clearer. The accents were emphasized and the weak sounds were picked up. So the fluctuation of melody became more vivid.
The sound of cellos became a little blurry, probably due to too much reverberation. The texture did not change a lot.

Amplification is evident. Also, the shell concentrated the sound and make the song hear compact and solid. Strong reverb effects chamfered the rough high pitches. Harp and guitar joined the melody after amplification.
The timbre of panpipe turned very thick, very rounded and tedious, resulting from strong reverberation. But the sound was trapped in the model
The sounds were amplified and panpipe’s sound was highly emphasised. The melody sound blended well with the Orchestral accompaniment.
The saturation of distortion was enhanced. Drums’ quality improved and have a good impact on rhythm. The sound became dynamic and elastic.
The high pitches turned dull and blunt. The distortion desaturated a little bit. Cymbals and guitars’ sounds were no long sharp but fatty and lack of distortion.
The shell concentrated and amplified the sounds very well. The articulation of the song became compact. Distortion in vocal, guitar and bass was plump. The sound spread out and wider than previous design.
The most obvious improvement is that basso became thicker, denser and the texture of the music became richer. The shell vibrated with the accents, and made the accents more powerful. The chords became robust.
Strong amplification in the front of the opening. The sound bounced and reflected in the shell creating strong reverberation in the shell. But the song sounded tedious and plastic from other directions.
The sound was amplified effectively. The timbre of cellos became wet and smooth. But the clarity turned a little blurry due to the strong reverb effects generated by the cone-shaped model.

Highly increased the volume. The sounds spreading out the shell were uniform and soft. The drawn-out notes became a little void and ethereal.
The sound of panpipe became mellow and thick. The balance between the melody sound and accompaniment was more harmonious due to the reverberation. So the melody turned fluid, smooth and plump.
The saturation of sax improved. Panpipe sound became stronger. Orchestra as accompaniment was blended well with panpipe. The sound of panpipe and the expression of trills became more solid, less sharp and less rough.
The saturation of distortion was enhanced. Drums’ quality improved and have a good impact on rhythm. The sound became dynamic and elastic.
The saturation of distortion was enriched. The mixing effect among the drums, cymbals, guitar and bass was good. But the vocal seemed to be split from the accompaniment.
The saturation of distortion was enriched. The vocal was split from the accompaniment. But sound coming from two directions made the music sound disordered
The sound became solid and thicker. The texture of soprano, alto and basso weaved together. The sense of the vibration of strings was restored a little bit
The texture of cellos were restored. The sense of vibration of the string became clearer. The accents were emphasized and the weak sounds were picked up. So the fluctuation of melody became more vivid and elastic.
Bass sound became solid and thicker. The sound from four cellos can be identified and they were weaved together in harmony. So, the rhythm become strong

Slight amplification of sound. The timbre and texture of panpipe did not change too much. While the guitar turned a little bit harsh.
The saturation of distortion was enhanced. The sound became dynamic and elastic. But sound became toneless and tedious except from tone with high frequency, like vocal and cymbals
The shell did really good on the restoration of the metallic sound from cymbals, sounds like knocking on metal disc. The vocal and basso part were amplified but did not change too much on their quality.
The sound was amplified slightly but the timbre suddenly became tedious. The sound of cymbals and pedals became raspy and harsh. Overall, the articulation of sounds were a little bit better.
The sound turned very crispy and metallic. The model generated less reverberation but performed extremely well on the amplification of high frequency notes. The horn made the texture of sound solid.

Similar to concaved form. Slight amplification of sound. The timbre and texture of panpipe did not change too much. While the guitar turned a little bit harsh. But less reverberation.
Panpipe’s sound became elastic, thinner and sharper. The sound bounced and reflected in the shell many times and rapidly with few energy loss. The drawnout notes made the sound void and ethereal
The saturation of harp and panpipe was refined. Orchestra as accompaniment was blended well with panpipe’s melody sound. The sound of became more solid, round and smooth. Compared to other materials, the sound in paper shell was mild. Harmonious reverb effects.
The saturation of distortion was enhanced. Drums’ quality improved and have a good impact on rhythm. The sound became dynamic and elastic.
The drums and beat became hard, rigid and powerful. Very effective amplification. The vocal & yell became very thin and sharp, as if frequency became higher. The melody became dynamic and elastic. The rhythmic articulation was empowered.
Balance of drums, cymbals, guitars, bass, and vocal. Drums and cymbal was amplified and rounded. But the reverb effects in the shell made the articulation a little messy and made the clarity blurry.
Before and after are essentially the same except for a little more reverberation. The timbre turned a little bit toneless.
The basso turned robust and elastic. The articulation of four cellos were closer. The amplified sound can be perceived from all directions.
The reverb effects rub down the texture of cellos’ sounds and blurred the cellos’ sound a little bit. But overall, it enhanced the fluidity of the melody and rhythm.

Sound will bounce and reflect many times in the cavity and may generate a strong reverberation effects before reaching the audience. The top convex overhang helps the spray of the light. So sound will have a far distribution.
Strong ability to concentrate light. Only a little light escape from the shell. But the shell generated sufficient reverberation. I think that is the reason why the music sounds thicker, mellow, ethereal. But indeed it is not an ideal form for the even distribution of sound
Through these experiments, I found that the line of laser sometimes lighted up a large area but sometimes didn’t. Because the unsmooth surface of the foil, dispersion and diffusion happened.
01,02,04: Concave shapes can reflect sounds many times in their cavity. Sound is reflected and concentrated to front of shells, very close to the stage. If there is no top overhang, sound will escape from the top of the shell. But concave top overhang will reflect sound straight down to the front of shells, which is not good for the propagation to the audience.
03,05,07: Convex shells did spread the sound out towards the audience. With the small cavity at the end of horn, sound will be reflected rapidly and bounce many times, and then jet out of the shell. For the horn with larger cavity, the speed of reflection (the length of lines in the images) is slower than those with small cavity. But the top margin of shell will lose many sounds because the sounds are reflected towards the sky. 07, 08, 09: Undulating shapes. Sound bounces sharply in the sawtooth of 07. so it is hard to predict the angle of emergence. Taking advantages of these findings, soften the undulations and reverse the zigzags can slightly control the distribution of sounds. Like 08, reflected the sound that will escape from the top of shell back towards the audience.

““The two contrasting approaches to building on high-constraint terrain – here a steep slope. As parallelepiped volumes, the two buildings are similar. Yet they are diametrically opposed. One house cantilevers out over the slope, standing out in stark relief; the other slides sleekly down the steep hill, parallel to the slope. But the contrast is not only about relating differently to natural surrounds. The houses are studies in ‘liveability’. Each responds to different requirements: one takes in the surrounding landscape; the other turns inward, in compliance with the client’s desire for privacy. The cantilevered house is a linear, one storey construction. The ground floorplate connects to the foundations via a series of obliquely set slabs. The second house follows a more ‘natural’ programme. But although hugging the slope in apparent simple obedience to the lay of the land, the architecture creates a series of different levels of its own. The building springs from foundations that intersect with the slope, allowing the westward thrust of the floorplate. As the focus is on secluded interior space, the ample glazed façades do not form the outermost perimeter of the building.” esm” (“The two contrasting approaches”, 2011)

“The site is located on the heights of Annemasse, in the town of VetrazMonthoux. The slope of about 15 °, a maximum of 9 meters to meet the immediate vicinity of an EBC (wooded area) are the regulatory and geographic data that allowed us to formalize this project very contextual. The project is in the form of three small bars ptites 48 m long by 8.50 m wide and 9 m high arranged almost identical in the direction of the slope, the inclination angle emerges from large terraces on the west side with a view overlooking Geneva. The buildings are simple parallelepipeds is their inclination of 15 ° parallel to the slope which gives them particular interest. By arranging the buildings in the direction of the slope, we avoid the visual effect of built front and it re-creates corridors plant we propose to extend as far as the outskirts of the city. Operation of private initiative and for its architecture, creating conditions for the continuity of the landscape, the public good. Each building contains six units of a hundred square meters, each with a large terrace. The total area of the operation reaches 2500 m shon The buildings will be entirely prefabricated by Arbosphère, company specializing in the construction PANELS Solid wood. Intermediate supports for floors are made of glued-laminated beams, and a complex insulation installed between the concrete slab and wood floor, acoustic treats and compensates for the low inertia of the wood. Cut into digital machining center, the panels arrived on site are fitted with mobile hoists. A wood frame building. HQE for one course site dry, clean, fast. Conducted in compliance with the existing mitigation of pollution. For reasons of economy we will work with panels of 10 cm thick coated 15 cm of insulation and cladding of approximately 80mm thick. The panels 125 cm wide creates a frame sizing the whole building and providing the design process a new rigor. The entire design process incorporates the BBC approach.” (“The site is located”, n.d..)
