Cubic Cultural Centers

The House of Music by 'Coop Himmelb(l)au' Has Multiple Purposes

— April 16, 2014 — Art & Design
The House of Music by design firm 'Coop Himmelb(l)au' has recently opened in Denmark, and will be used for both a training center, as well as a concert venue.

From the outside, the building is quite cubic, with a few areas where curves can be found. However, upon entering the building, the curve effect is much more prominent. Coop Himmelb(l)au has also designed the inside of the place so that people can watch rehearsals and concerts at the same time, with quite a few observation areas looking down on both. Another helpful feature of the building is the height-adjustable ceilings. From an acoustic standpoint, having the ability to change the sound structure of a room can completely adjust the atmosphere of an entire concert.

The House of Music is ideal for both entertainment and learning alike.
