Outstanding Concert Halls: A Perfect Match Between Acoustics and Aesthetics

When we think about a perfect match between acoustics and good design it may not be as easy as it seems. A number of technical decisions in order to make an interior space acoustically efficient -and to achieve its programmatic purpose correctly- can make some of the architect’s design intentions fade and be replaced by standard and prefabricated panels.

In this article published in Archdaily, they present a selection of architecture projects that are able to create a memorable visual impact as well as an impeccable interior solution for acoustics.

[bauzeitgeist]

Yaoundé’s incredible Central Market, a four-level open-air fortress articulated in rhythmic patterns of huge raw concrete panels which act as both railings and sunshades for the inner and outer-facing racetrack circulation galleries, interrupted both inside and out by massive turret-like stairwells covered in paddle-shaped cement cladding. The overall effect, especially on the exterior, is of a giant curled-up concrete millipede. Inside, the ‘hippodrome’ space holds a series of smaller zinc-roofed structures. Simple, even utilitarian, yet a striking public space. Photos February 2019 Bauzeitgeist.
