Question

How does the curved design of ceilings and walls behind the stage in concert and conference halls improve the quality of sound for the audience compared to flat surfaces? You may consult an architect or search it on the internet.

Answer 1

Curved reflective surfaces help distribute reflected sound more evenly throughout the hall. Concave surfaces can focus sound toward distant seats, while convex surfaces scatter sound to reduce echoes and dead spots. Flat surfaces reflect sound in one direction and often produce flutter echoes or uneven loudness. Curved ceilings and walls therefore improve clarity, speech intelligibility, and balanced sound for the audience.
