「森作り」"More Trees"というアイデアをソースに、港区エコプラザに出現した音の森は、そこに集う人々が、あたかも本当の森にいるかのような、音による森林浴を提供する。エコプラザの内装や調度品に用いられている木材は、あきる野の「みなと区民の森」から切り出した間伐材であり、たとえば観賞魚を生育した河川の水で飼うように、その日のあきる野市周辺の「気温」「日照時間」「風速」などのデータをリアルタイムで取り込み、それらを『音の森』の環境に反映させていく。エコプラザに集められた木々が自らの育った森といつまでも繋がっていられるように。また光合成によって森が与える、カーボンオフセットという素晴らしい自然の仕組みに敬意を表して。森が刻々と変化していくように、港区エコプラザに設置された『音の森』も環境変化によって、一日を通じて、四季を通じて、刻々と変化していくのである。

Inspired by the concept "More Trees" to increase the number of forests, the forest of sound that appeared in the Minato-ward Eco Plaza offers visitors a chance to have a stroll through it. The lumber that is used for the interiors and furniture of the eco plaza are scrub wood thinned from the "Minato-ward citizen's forest" , which is located in the Akiruno area. The real time data such as temperature, length of day, and wind speed in Akiruno city is reflected back to the environment of the “forest of sounds.” As aquarium fish are bred in the river water they have grown in, the wood gathered in the Eco Plaza will always be connected to the forest they have grown in. Moreover, this piece pays respect to the wonderful carbon offset mechanism that the forests provide. The “forest of sounds” set in the Minato-ku Eco Plaza reflects the alternations of the environment, and changes moment by moment through out the day and seasons just as a natural forest would do.
