The sound environment affects us more than we think – and for many, it is introduced too late in room design. Here we highlight how sound, form, and humans interact, and why a broader perspective is necessary for sustainable and functional environments.

The sound environment is never just background noise – it is shaped by the room, the activity, and the people there. Here we explore how different factors affect our experience and what you, as a designer or responsible person, can do to create a sound environment that both feels and functions well.

Research shows that the sound environment affects both our well-being and performance. Here we summarise what the studies say – and how textiles and design can contribute to more balanced and pleasant rooms.

The sound environment affects how we feel, think, and work. At the same time, the visual framework and the context itself will in turn affect how we perceive the sound environment. It is therefore a complex interplay between the senses, and precisely what Designing sounds is all about.

What shapes a sound environment, and what significance do the visual elements have? To gain a design perspective on the question, we had a conversation with the design department at Svensson.

The interaction between sound and visual design is becoming increasingly important for our experience of public environments. With Designing sounds, we explore this dynamic to find inspiration for a more holistic design philosophy.

In a time when our senses are constantly overwhelmed by information, it becomes increasingly important to understand how different sensory impressions, such as sound and visual design, can work together to create a balanced and healthy environment. Textiles offer unique opportunities to enhance the sound environment, regulate light impressions, and create flexible spaces that contribute to increased well-being and focus for students and school staff.

In the same way that a sunshade transmits, reflects, and absorbs different proportions of light, a curtain does the same with sound.

By predicting the acoustics at an early stage of your project, you can ensure that the technical solutions are seamlessly integrated into your vision.

Textile is a perfect material to complement other acoustic solutions with. Especially curtains that are developed to absorb sound.

A product's ability to absorb sound determines its sound absorption coefficient. It can range from 0.0, which means no absorption, to 1.0, which is total absorption.
