About Tension Instrument Concert Hall

Iyo purojekiti yakavakirwa pakudzidza kwezvivakwa uye mimhanzi. Iyo dhizaini inotarisisa maitiro ekutora kurudziro kubva mumhanzi usingabatike uye kuiratidza munzvimbo inobatika yekuvaka. Dhizaini yacho inozobatanidza zviviri izvi kuburikidza ne "tension", simba rinowanikwa mune zvese zvivakwa nemumhanzi. Imba yekonzati ndeyekurongeka kwemadziro, mabharukoni, uye acoustic mapaneru, ayo anogadzirwa kubva kune yakasarudzika yekuvaka prototype nezvikero zvakasiyana uye tectonics. Musiyano unoshamisa wekare neutsva unogadzira chimiro chitsva chetsika chePrague.

The Recognition

About the Mubairo weGoridhe we A' Design Award

Mubairo weGoridhe we A' Design Award wakahwinwa ne Tension Instrument Concert Hall, rukudzo rwakakwirira kwazvo runopiwa kumadhizaini ekutanga, anoshamisa uye akanakisa. Vakunda veGoridhe mabasa ane zvitsva zvakawanda, ane chiratidzo uye anopenya, anoratidza njere, uchenjeri nehunyanzvi hwevagadziri vawo. Tension Instrument Concert Hall inotarisirwa kuva chigadzirwa chinorumbidzwa kwazvo, chinoita mafambiro matsva uye chakakura, chinopa kukosha kusati kwamboonekwa. Dhizaini iyi yakahwina Mubairo weGoridhe we A' Design Award basa rinoshamisa, rinoremekedzwa, rinobatsira zvikuru uye rinosundira mberi miganhu yehunyanzvi, sayenzi, dhizaini netekinoroji. Tension Instrument Concert Hall inomutsa manzwiro akasimba ekuda, inomutsa mwoyo, inokurudzira kugadzira uye inotikwezva.

Behind the Design

Unique Properties: The concert hall is an orchestration of walls, balconies, and acoustic panels, which are developed from a unique architectural prototype by different scales and tectonics.

The site finds itself nested at the junction of historical and modern districts. Thus, the elements are carefully placed in the site with respect to programs, circulations, and urban landscape. The dramatic contrast of old and new creates a new cultural landmark for Prague.
Dimensions & Packaging: 100m x 65m x 50m
Tags: Contemporary Architecture, Technical architecture, Architecture Tectonic, Concert Hall, Exhibition, Culture, Concept
Production Technology: Cross-Laminated Timber (CLT), Concrete, Steel
Design Challenge: Architectural tectonic and technology has become the biggest challenge. Cantilevered curved walls were achieved in the combination of the steel and cross-laminated timber.
Research: The project is based on the study of architecture and music. The design focuses on how to take the inspiration from the intangible music and present it in the tangible architectural space. The design ultimately combines the two through "tension", a force that is prevalent in both architecture and music.
Inspiration: Tension is a material property that creates both music and architecture. Inspired by Dvorak’s New World Symphony, the prototype originates from a piece of wood bent by a string in tension. The concert hall is an orchestration of walls, balconies, and acoustic panels, which are developed from the prototype by different scales and tectonics.
Project Duration: The project started in January 2020 in Těšnov, Prague
Operation Flow: The site finds itself nested at the junction of historical and modern districts. Thus, the architectural space were carefully planned and placed in the site with respect to programs, circulations, and urban landscape. The dramatic contrast of old and new creates a new cultural landmark for Prague.
