The acoustics and ventilation method allows the designer to explore natural ventilation and acoustics issues at an early design stage. Few input parameters are necessary, like the number of people the space must accommodate and the volume of air per person appropriate to the acoustic function. While allowing the comfort temperature to rise during occupation by some 10 to 15%, the natural ventilation and acoustics can be discussed via the volume of the space.
