Taking the Myx Sail displayed at Danish Design Museum as a case study, this article investigates room acoustics of an architectural installation made Mycelium Textiles. Textiles represent novel typology mycelium-based composites (MBC). The absorbers are grown on composition different layers plant fibres combining woven jute textile with hemp mat and loose wood wool substrate enhancing mechanical acoustic properties composite. Two complementary tests were conducted to measure absorbing mycelium material its effects exhibition hall. results show that sail acts effectively absorber especially in higher range frequencies, reducing reverberation time improving speech intelligibility. effect overall is effective, if sound source placed directly underneath sail. survey amongst visitors their subjective perception comfort well-being however indicate degree which surface (and by extension, building) perceived positively or negatively depends relationship individual has Nature.
