Abstract

Attention on visual effects is insufficient in urban open spaces, while soundscape design is important. In this paper, a soundscape study on the Shenzhen Dongmen Open Space have been made in order to provide aural pleasant for the users. The study shows that existing sounds on the Space are not delightful to satisfy the users. Based on the study results, a soundscape design is made in order to prove the Space sonic environment. Eventually, effects of the soundscape design have been examined in the laboratory experiment and also by using the Artificial Neural Network (ANN) models. Furthermore, the subjective evaluations of soundscape design made in the experiment and made by ANN models have been compared.
