Haus der Musik
However, the additional features of a house of music with a more solitary character, as an independent and democratic institution is without bias in the surrounding context, combined with a transparent and clear interior, encounters and unexpected relationships are made possible, which we believe offer greater Weight. In addition, the channel height of the neighbouring buildings is observed from a recoil (backward tilt) of the south facade to around 13 meters.
The House of Music consists of two building volumes with an open public space in between, which connects the two volumes together. The building is oriented to the square on the Rennweg. There is also the main entrance, overlooking the Imperial Palace and the connection to the old town. The northern volume follows the orthogonal grid of the Tiroler Landestheater and accommodate all concert halls and theatres. The southern volume follows the angular displacement of University Street. In this part all the offices and rehearsal rooms are planned. Both volumes are raised to the side of the racing path and the University street above street level, so that the public space from the square and the road extends into the House of Music.
The transparent façade and public programming throughout baseboards Rennweg and Universitätsstrasse improve accessibility and create attraction and liveliness. In the northern volume all the halls are stacked. The internal logistics platform is therefore organized very efficiently. Within a radius of 15 meters around the scenery lift all platforms and storage rooms on the various floors are accessible without barriers.
The public road dynamic that extends into the building, leads the guests to the heart of the space, from where you will be invited to have a look at a representative cross-section of the entire house of the music program.
