  abstract     = {{In a search for more sustainable materials, fungi have proven increasingly effective as a new building material. Mycelium composites are part of this discussion and experimentation. This research discusses the construction of a pavilion in a shell shape made of wooden construction elements filled with mycelium-hemp substrate. This paper explores how the fungus can work in symbiosis with other biomaterials, observing its behavior in two growth phases. The first growth phase took place in a temperature and humidity-controlled lab environment. The second phase was about testing the further growth behavior in an outdoor environment with a relatively wide range of temperature and humidity conditions.}},

  abstract     = {{Urban noise pollution is a major environmental health problem. International organizations are making efforts to prevent health damage due to high levels of noise in cities, but the design of the built environment typically neglects the acoustic impact of architectural projects. Building facades, covering a substantial part of the vertical surfaces of the urban fabric, have a significant effect on the wellbeing of the population and on the environmental impact of buildings. Facade geometries and materials interact with the diversity of sounds in the city composing soundscapes that influence the health, comfort, and productivity of people inside and outside of buildings. This study gives an overview of the elements involved in the composition of the urban soundscape and revises the potential effects of sound-reflective and sound-absorptive facades. With the purpose of exemplifying the integration of acoustic data into facade design processes, a parametric design workflow is developed to experiment with acoustic simulations of a street environment, alternating between sound-reflective and sound-absorptive facades.}},
