Focusing on a historically important site where political decisions were debated over centuries, we aim to simulate present intangible principles properties sounds heard within space. The model was created based available historical evidence with aid commercial simulation software. We discuss made for this further experimentation characteristics constituent materials settings An additional comparison achieved results spaces similar importance layout is presented, as calibration in situ measurements not possible case study. values T30, EDT, C50 Ts are while auralization examples also subjective evaluation results.
