description | Intelligibility is an extremely important feature of the studios and lecture halls of a faculty of architecture. The foundation of an education is based in these spaces, which are expected to accommodate various styles of study. For these spaces to be efficiently utilized, they must be well designed for acoustic comfort. Current conditions of acoustics in a studio and a lecture hall at the Faculty of Architecture of Dokuz Eylül University were evaluated by both subjective and objective methods in the present study. Subjective methods included a questionnaire, and objective methods included measurement and simulation of acoustics. Suggestions for improvement of acoustic quality were developed according to results. |
