 — By folding the back-of-house functions into a V that opens towards the harbor, BIG adapts the building to the landscape and the requirements in the project brief.

 — The parking is tucked between the concert house and the terrain, creating a bridge from the city to the water.

 — The program of the concert hall is wrapped by a terraced landscape that leaves space for the staff and guests to move between and over the auditoriums. The terraced landscape ties the changing topography, building levels and balconies into a continuous landscape of 1000 plateaus.
