For an even dispersion of sound in a theater, it is important to avoid focusing surfaces. For example, curved surfaces are considered antifocusing surfaces, which reduces echoes in a room. Hence, I created this ceiling condition where the source of sound would bounce off the adjacent curved surfaces that connect the gaps formed by the square panels. The angle of each adjacent square panels is at an opposite angle to avoid large flat surfaces which would've resulted in uneven dispersion. The panels are made of very dense foam material, which is a good source of sound absorption.

| By experimenting with grasshopper, the source of sound would hit the curved surfaces and reflect down to the audience. |

| As you can see the panels are at opposite angles to each other. The vertical surfaces are curved to create anti-focusing surfaces. |
