Hood

Hood enhances the visitor’s acoustic experience of weather conditions through subtle exaggeration. When drizzle falls, it mimics the sound of rain; during a downpour, distant rolling thunder is heard. A gentle breeze transforms into strong winds rustling through the treetops, while rising temperatures bring forth the sounds of insects, birds, and animals from warmer climates. The enhancements are designed so that the visitor cannot distinguish between real and augmented sounds, creating a cohesive auditory experience.

The pergola utilises data from its own weather station to trigger pre-recorded weather sounds, ensuring that the sonic response is tailored to the current conditions. As soon as a few raindrops touch the shelter, the sound samples shift accordingly, immersing the visitor in an environment where nature and sound intertwine seamlessly, heightening their awareness of the weather around them.
