Sound design is a marginal field of design. Firstly, the rise and development of sound design are introduced and the discussion on that sound technology is the foundation and premise of sound design is carried out. Furthermore, the two interdiciplinary subjects of STS (science, technology and society) and sound studies are introduced, and under the new research paradigm, the concepts of sound and sound design are expanded. The objects of sound design are not only multimedia, but also entities. The narrative of sound design breaks through the traditional dialogue narrative and uses multiple sound elements for narration. Moreover, the sound narrative is not only temporal, but also spatial. Based on theoretical research, and combined with the specific practice of design teaching, it is put forward that sound and multi-sensory narrative can be regarded as a breakthrough and supplement to the meta-narrative of design, providing different design strategies for multi-dimensional narratives.
