Description
The soundscape approach has been utilised in recent research for residential environments, but applications to indoor working environments remain limited. This study investigated 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 demonstrate 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.
