Abstract
Not being an acoustician, I have limited knowledge of such expertise. I trust advice of consultants in your science to inform consideration of acoustical issues. Having designed projects in 46 countries I understand context is often represented incompletely in serving community needs. I will present more thorough representations of contextual forces informing my design, infusing regional voices in built work. Cultural influencers optimize design of sedate individual Korean restaurant rooms in contrast to strategies deployed in American restaurants where noise is utilized to maximize sales. I would intend to provoke this discussion. Context is generally defined as the physical setting affecting of buildings. Historically, identifiable nationalities or tribes have evolved organically over time, producing significantly unique DNA of each. These differences are most apparent in crafting buildings and conceiving art, music, and cuisine where acoustic social protocols are voiced. NATURAL FORCES affecting human comfort GEOGRAPHIC FORCES influencing integration with nature HISTORIC FORCES defining legacy of place URBAN FORCES defining constraints and opportunities PHYSICAL FORCES influencing disposition of a program on a specific site HUMAN FORCES defining community MARKET FORCES creating possibility DIGITAL FORCES redefining engagement ENGINEERING FORCES affecting psychological balance
