The Luxembourg Philharmonie
Description
In 1995, the city of Luxembourg decided to have a large concert hall built on the Kirchberg plateau. The challenge for the architect was to associate three major public performance areas in the same complex, a large philharmonic hall, a chamber music auditorium and a space for discovery. The architect, Christian de Portzamparc made this hall into a great musical instrument. Elliptic in shape, the Philharmonie with its filter of white columns and colored cliffs, opens into the main auditorium that nestles like a jewel in its box. One of the architect's most beautiful buildings.
