Spatial journeys through place and history.
Sphere of Sound creates spatial audio tours and listening experiences for museums, exhibitions and heritage places. Stories, voices and soundscapes connect what visitors see with what happened here.
Sound-led experience design for culture, place and memory.
Experience the difference
Voices, music and environmental sound are positioned around the listener. A room, object or landscape becomes part of the story — not merely its backdrop.

Frequently asked
That depends on the existing environment and chosen experience. We investigate this in advance with the technical partner.
We can develop new or additional audio and first assess the technical and editorial conditions.
We can design tempo, intensity, silence and moments of choice accordingly. Suitability for a specific audience is tested together.
Timing depends on content, languages, rights and technology. A proposal includes a timeline after the first exploration.
