Description
The soundscape approach has been utilised in recent research for residential environments, but applications to indoor working environments remain limited. This talk discusses a study investigating the suitability of soundscape evaluations for open-plan office acoustics. Perceptual assessments were completed by occupants of eight open-plan office floorplates, using the affective dimensions outlined in PD ISO/TS 12913-3:2019 and indoor soundscape studies. Results indicate the suitability of the PD ISO/TS 12913-3:2019 two-dimensional model to open-plan office environments and a relationship between office soundscape perception, psychological well-being and work-related quality.
