The Impact Of Music On Soundscape And Human Perception In Complex Function Spaces

Well-concerning focus on Humanized Space Design Concept comes to thechallenge of the designer universally facing more and more complexed buildingspace and function, the user runs always the stronger in his mind for space comfortand spiritual goals. Thus, we put forward the study of building space design basedon human behavior, relying on the study of pattern of human behavior, to learn fromspace, improve space by means of sound perspective. As there is a wide variety ofspace forms, thus, in this paper, a small-scale space in the campus teaching buildingis chosen for study. The purpose of this paper is to study the change of user'ssubjective sound comfort level of space when the music is introduced in small spaceas well as change of music rhythm brings the change of user's subjective vision.Sound comfort level belongs to the study of soundscape, it being involved inmany factors such as sound, user, space, environment and etc. Therefore, clarifyingrelations of these factors to subjective sound comfort level is even more important.Music being introduced in the building space aims at enhancement of quality ofbuilding space, which builds a considerable, humanized building space for people.However, as a carrier of human behavior, the building space is largely builtdependent on sound environment, where people through his recognition of buildingspace develops their similar activities in the similar space with people's recognitionof building space.Sound and sound source in themselves are both objects for study of soundscapeand becomes the most important part of soundscape. After investigation, the paperreveals that it shows a parabolic trend between the relation of equivalent A soundlevel under compound sound environment and sound comfort level. The study alsoshows that, the influence may vary in each independent sound source after music isintroduced. For example: In case of the space near sound source form the freezer,the investigator lowers his subjective vision after the short rhythm music isintroduced; However, long rhythm music surely makes investigator enhance hissound comfort level.In addition, this paper makes an analysis for relationship of user's sex, age,education and other social features to space subjective vision, and reveals that ithave a relativity between subjective loudnesses of education or sound comfort level.Additionally, the respondents also vary in application of purposes, frequencies,time, other behavior characteristics and etc. It also makes an analysis for anddescribes the relation between these factors and change of subjective sound comfortlevel after the music is introduced. Currently, for an increasingly demands for space environment, the paper,whether or not music may to a certain extent change people's subjective vision forbuilding space, it will certainly put forward new understanding for improvement ofsound environment in small-scale space of compound functions and enhance thestudy of quality of building space, and is endowed with new experience for peopleto recognize building space.
