Versatile Venue: How Can the Acoustics of a Space Be Optimized for Varied Performances?

Abstract

What are the ideal parameters for designing a concert hall, and how can these be integrated into a versatile venue? This is the main goal this research report aims to solve. Case studies, literature, and simulation help to form a clear thought for design, and venue that can accommodate and maximize acoustical performance of the space. When designing and constructing a performance space there are a wide variety of factors that influence the overall design of the venue. Shape, volume, materials, location, all contribute to the acoustics of space. Each aspect must synchronize with the others to achieve desired acoustics.
