sound portrait of a house, 2025, a sound-based website
As primarily visual beings, we rely on our eyes to access and interpret information. Yet, the world around us is not
only seen but also heard, and these sounds are integral to how we experience our surroundings. Our homes are defined not only by their visual identity but also by the soundscapes that shape our everyday experience. The objects within these spaces each carry their own language, speaking through familiar sounds—the kettle always whistles the same way, the bed creaks with the same rhythm each night, the toilet flush echoes with a predictable cadence. The sound of a door opening or closing is enough to tell us which room it belongs to. Can we rediscover the most familiar place only through sound?
