Abstract:The term "soundscape" emerged and gained interest with the progression of studies in the field of urban acoustical environment. In the urban context, auditory perception is as critical as the visual conception of the space. However the researches in this regard are not profound yet. From this departure point, the thesis interconnects a wide range of critical issues. It considers the relationship between space, form and movement through the sonic experience of the walking urbanite. The main research objective is to develop a spatial framework and approach to examine the sonic condition(s) along the Atatürk Boulevard. In this respect, this study specifies the components of the physical space which affects the type, range and level of sonic effects. Integrating these concepts requires innovative approaches, methods and tools.
