The design for the new Nuremberg Concert Hall extends the historically rich heritage of the adjacent Meistersingerhalle and enriches the cultural city of Nuremberg with a unique musical experience in which music and space become one. The concert hall – perceived from the outside as a freestanding object – is covered with wooden strips from inside and outside. The hall's monolithic appearance is broken into balconies, information desks and break-out zones on a human scale. The 1600 seats are distributed over a terraced landscape of wooden balconies, creates a unique musical experience.
