The team at local design firm SLAS Architekti creates a facade of shining steel materials around the Józef Świder State Music School. The concert hall is nestled in southern Poland and it is designed for the state music school. It is located between the lines of new urban developments and older tourist resort areas.
The co-founder of SLAS Architekci, Mariusz Komraus shared with Dezeen, "The new concert hall with natural acoustics is an instrument designed to give students the opportunity to learn to play and develop their talent. The facade material was intended not only to shine and neutralize the volume of the facility with reflections of the surroundings, but above all to withstand the test of time and be resistant to vandalism."
