İşitsel peyzaj kavramı; mimari tasarım sürecinde, stüdyo tasarım sürecinin yapı sökümüyle yapılan deneyler ve yenilikçi tasarım çözümleri için yeni olanaklar yaratabilir. Algı önceliklerini değiştirmek (ses algısını görsel algıya tercih etmek) tasarım hakkında yeni düşünme ve bağ kurma biçimlerinin oluşması için yeni olasılıklar sağlayabilir. 2015 güz dönemi Anadolu Üniversitesi, Mimarlık Bölümü'nde, Mimari Tasarım Stüdyosu V dersimizde bu yaklaşım ve süreç deneyi gerçekleştirilmiştir. Yirmi üç kişilik öğrenci grubuna, önceden belirlenmiş kentsel alanların altı farklı, on beş dakikalık, binaural ses kayıtları, tek ve temel tasarım verisi olarak dağıtılmıştır. Öğrencilerden bu kayıtları dikkatli bir şekilde ve tekrar tekrar dinlemeleri; topoğrafya, yapı yoğunluğu, iklim koşulları, kullanıcıların demografik ve sosyo-ekonomik strüktürünü belirlemeleri, ve zaman alanına ait çıkarımlarda bulunmaları beklenilmiştir. Sonrasında, sadece duydukları ardından yarattıkları bu kendi kentsel alanlarına ait, ana tasarım problemini belirlemek üzere çalışmışlardır. Bu mimari tasarım stüdyo eğitimi denemesini önererek biz, temel maddesiz mimari elemanlardan olan sesin, yeni stüdyo ve tasarım süreçlerindeki etki ve olanaklarını araştırmaktayız.

The year 2020 has been declared as the International Year of Sound with hoping that the importance of hearing sounds will be understood all over the world. On this matter, the results of the "Listen to the Sound of the City, Compose Your Own Sound" workshop organized in Eskişehir were discussed in order to the preference tendencies of sound type in an urban sound environment sample through the soundscape approach in the fight against noise and investigating the relationship of sound types with acoustic identity through this questioning. In this article, the experiences and evaluations of the participants about the sounds of the city were shared and discussed in line with the data obtained in the field study with a participant group of 38 people by the sound walk method in three different routes determined in the urban area which is the busy and important trade and tourism region of Eskisehir city. It has been observed that the participants expected the presence of natural sounds, human and daily life sounds and technological sounds in urban areas. According to this sounds that are accepted as noise in the legislation or whose level exceeds the acceptable limits due to the type of sound source; can be evaluated as desired/preferred sounds when the sounds belong to the urban identity.

The inclusive education method has substantial contributions to hearing-impaired individuals' education and socialization. However, the poor physical environment and acoustic comfort conditions negatively affect speech intelligibility at such places and therefore, the quality of education. Upon determining that there are very few subjective evaluation studies, we conducted a study regarding the impact of acoustic comfort conditions on speech intelligibility at inclusive education places. Within the scope of the study, first, a classroom was determined, and the current acoustic conditions of the class were evaluated objectively by field acoustic measurements. A calibrated model was created in the simulation software of the relevant class and then two more models with optimum reverberation time values of 0.4 s and 0.8 s as suggested in the literature, and auralizations were performed for the models. For subjective evaluation, a subject group of hearing-impaired and normal hearing individuals fulfilling equal conditions were tested by speech discrimination test in real-time in the classroom and from auralization recordings in a laboratory setting. Regarding the results obtained, it was observed that speech intelligibility percentage of normal hearing individuals increased as expected while in hearing-impaired individuals, contrary to the expectations, percentage differed from one another, and there was no increase. Following the discussions with experts, it was concluded that different hearing aids used by hearing-impaired individuals might lead to this situation. Accordingly, it occurs that the possibility to achieve a good speech intelligibility for hearing-impaired individuals even if optimum acoustic values suggested are fulfilled in education places remains unclear.
