The Design

About Symphony Interior Aula Konser Orkestra

Symphony adalah interior aula konser yang dirancang untuk pertunjukan orkestra simfoni. Proyek ini merupakan rekonstruksi sebuah ruang eksisting seluas 1000 meter persegi dengan bentuk geometris yang kompleks, berlokasi di Vilnius, Lituania. Pendekatan modular diterapkan, berbasis elemen-elemen standar seperti belah ketupat, segitiga, serta bidang halus dan bergerigi. Komponen-komponen tersebut dirakit dan disesuaikan untuk memadukan kualitas akustik dengan daya tarik visual. Dindingnya terbuat dari papan gipsum yang dilapisi venir kayu ek, dengan jalur pencahayaan di antaranya. Pola pada dinding mengingatkan pada motif-motif kuno Lituania.

Behind the Design

Credits, team members and technical details provided by the designer.

Unique Properties: Main objective was to achieve an entirely new acoustic standard, tailored specifically for symphony orchestra performances. We adopted a "lego constructor" philosophy, we meticulously devised several standard elements such as rhombuses, triangles, and both smooth and ribbed planes. Subsequently, we methodically assembled the interior using these components, adjusting their placement—adding or subtracting as necessary—to achieve a harmonious blend of acoustical excellence and aesthetic appeal.
Dimensions & Packaging: This is not a new hall. It is a reconstructed 1000m2 space with a complex geometric shape.

Production Technology: For the wall decor, we used plasterboards covered with oak veneer, with LED strips in between. Oak parquet flooring. Ceilings painted plasterboard.
Design Challenge: We adopted a "lego constructor" philosophy, wherein, in collaboration with acousticians (the acoustic aspect of the project overseen by the "Akustika plus" team), we meticulously devised several standard elements such as rhombuses, triangles, and both smooth and ribbed planes. Subsequently, we methodically assembled the interior using these components, adjusting their placement—adding or subtracting as necessary—to achieve a harmonious blend of acoustical excellence and aesthetic appeal.
Inspiration: We were inspired by ancient Lithuanian ethnic motifs and the old runic alphabet. We decided to integrate ethnic elements into the modern new concert hall to make the space more mystical. You can find these motifs on the decorated walls.
Project Duration: The project started in September 2019.
Reconstruction completion March 2023.
The renovated building is located in Vilnius, Lithuania.
Operation Flow: The primary focus of the symphony orchestra hall is the listener. Our main objective was to achieve an entirely new acoustic standard (the object is reconstruction), tailored specifically for symphony orchestra performances of the highest caliber.
