| Description |
|
The Kirishima International Concert Hall, mainly used for chamber music, is located in a fold of the foothills nearby the magnificent Kirishima mountain range. Its foyer is designed as part of a spatial sequence developed to maximize the views, creating a sense of expectation and festivity for the audience. The 800-seat main hall interior started as a shoebox form, and transformed to a leaf-shaped plan and bilge section to better diffuse and reflect sound. The result is the sensation of being fully surrounded by the performance. |
