The principles set out by
Niemeyer in the preliminary design
were respected in the realisation of the work.
All choices were also oriented towards improving the acoustic performance of the auditorium.
The building was divided into three blocks: the auditorium, the car park, and the support building. The third block, which houses the piazza bar, a staircase system and the book shop/ticket office, was not substantially modified from the final design.
The auditorium was equipped with a variable acoustics system and therefore a mobile system of corrugated methacrylate
reflective panels
positioned on the stalls deck and at the sides of the stalls was produced. The panels are movable to adapt the hall to different orchestral configurations.
The large glass wall separating the square from the hall was made of a double skin of glass with a 20 cm thick air chamber. During the executive phase, also to adapt the project to the new regulations on heat dispersion, a 60 cm air space between the panes was foreseen with air circulation inside.
In order to support this double glass skin, a
double-pillar metal structure
was inserted, which also cooperates in supporting the overhang, by means of steel strand tensioning.
