Overview
An acoustic sculpture in stainless steel—Gehry, acousticians, and the LA Phil co-authored a symphonic architecture.
Collaboration is the instrument. Architecture as ensemble.
Key Features
- Vineyard seating geometry for immersive sound.
- Double-curved metal surfaces controlling reflections.
- Lobby as urban threshold—a civic living room.
Team Roles
| Discipline | Contribution |
|---|---|
| Architecture | Form, circulation, light |
| Acoustics | Reverberation, clarity, diffusion |
| Engineering | Structure, facade, systems |
Sound & Space
- Reverberation time tuned via surface geometry and materials.
- Early reflections balanced for clarity across seating zones.
- Back-of-house flows integrated to support performance logistics.
How to Experience
- Attend a rehearsal, not just a concert.
- Walk exterior ramps at sunset.
- Sit in multiple sections to hear variances.
