Abstract
The basis for conceptual thinking in architecture is simultaneously aesthetic, humanistic, and scientific. An architectural theory was developed that includes philosophical, aesthetic, and technical thinking about acoustics as generative ideas for form. This theory has its roots in defining an acoustic landscape or soundscape: both interior and exterior, where the soundscape is formed by the architectural ideas and the soundscape reciprocally defines the architecture. The ensuing dialogical exploration of form, space, material, occupation, and phenomenological qualities provides a basis for the mutual expression or poesis of architectural and acoustic designers. The theory was used as the basis for graduate studio design classes at the University of Florida and is presented through the work of several students.
