The aim of the concert hall design is to create a place with perfect natural acoustics, suitable for both large orchestras and smaller bands, as well as room in which listeners and musicians can share the experience. The project is focused on creating a true sense of intimacy in space. This is achieved by avoiding a traditional seat arrangement where the scene would be formally placed at one end of the corridor. Instead, the audience is dispersed around the whole scene on two levels to increase the sense of closeness to the stage and intimacy with the performers. It also creates a sense of community, between the audience and performers, as well as between the listeners. Moreover it offers to the viewers a variety of views and experiences. Thanks to such a layout of the room, each of the 650 guests will feel special.
