The relationship between humans and nature is in a constant state of transformation. Humans interpret nature differently, but the undeniable need for a connection with natural areas persists. The value of natural soundscapes in overcrowded and noise-polluted cities is often overlooked. The current survey and conceptual plan aim to develop proposals for the use of the Homorodlok area, taking into account its unique natural characteristics and sounds, as well as the needs of the local population. An important aspect is to showcase the mountainous landscape, highlighting its values while also presenting the impact of human activity on nature. Homorodlok is located in the northern part of Căpâlnița settlement, in Harghita county, Romania, and covers an area of 3.82 hectares. Locals use the area for various events. The diversity of land use in the outskirts of this settlement creates opportunities in some places and problems in others, making it essential to adapt the area for everyday life. The proposal aims to resolve the rural public space of Căpâlnița and strengthen the area's connection with the settlement by developing a plan that considers natural components, including changes in land use, alongside people-centered perspectives.
