Interior Architecture and Environmental Design

In the course, the concepts of sound and light, which are the main factors affecting the design of physical environmental control in space, are discussed. It focuses on the basic concepts of acoustics (sound science) and human hearing, sound behavior in enclosed spaces, architectural acoustic theories, noise control in space, acoustic comfort. Thus, the first part of the course focuses on acoustics. The second part focuses on the importance of lighting in interior design. Physical parameters, human perception, light sources and the correct use of lighting systems in the context of interior design constitute the main fiction of the course.
