Budapest’s astonishing Hungarian House of Music to open soon! – PHOTOS, VIDEO

Magyar Zene Háza, which translates to Hungarian House of Music, is projected to open in 2022. As the name suggests, the building is dedicated to music. The futuristic modern design is coupled with special engineering solutions. The Hungarian music hall will serve three different functions. The building will consist of three storeys which will be separated by design elements and space.

Hello Magyar reports that a 1,000 square-meter interactive exhibition will open next year in Magyar Zene Háza. Now, the finishing touches of the building are in progress. The institution is located in Liget Budapest and aims to introduce visitors, both adults and children, to the world of music.

The new Hungarian music hall has three functions. It will be the place of education, knowledge sharing as well as concerts and music. The concert rooms will be situated at park level. The exhibition areas that do not require natural light will be located underground. The music pedagogy and research rooms will be found upstairs. The building marks the work of Sou Fujimoto, one of the most acknowledged Japanese architects.

“Sou Fujimoto, founder of Sou Fujimoto Architects in Tokyo, does not see nature and the built environment as opposing forces, but seeks to integrate and learn from the environment as much as possible throughout the design process. Most notably, Fujimoto was selected to design the 2013 Serpentine Gallery Pavilion in London, and in 2019, as one of the 23 architects to reinvent Paris.” – writes resite.org. The constructors are currently putting the finishing touches to the new Hungarian music hall. They install the sound sensors and other technical equipment. The building will also feature a unique element called the Hangdóm.
