The renovation and expansion of Orchestra Hall will more than double our lobby space, create a dramatic new exterior and open the venue to the city outside. Following are KPMB's design schematics, showcasing the new exterior and lobby spaces.
Tell us what you think! We'd love to hear your feedback on the designs.
Orchestra Hall Outside
KPMB's design juxtaposes a light, transparent wrap against the Hall's distinctive brick shoebox auditorium.
Orchestra Hall Peavey Plaza
Along the southwest side of the building, patrons will have access to the outdoors via two new terraces.
Inside Lobby
Every level of the lobby will have generous walkways, built-in benches, drink rails and beautiful views.
Lobby Expansion - 11th Street
Floor-to-ceiling glass walls invite patrons to enjoys views of 11th Street from the lobby.
Lobby Tier 1
The Lobby's sense of transparency will be matched with a feeling of openness and ease of access.
City Room
The expansion of the lobby to the west culminates in the City Room, a flexible gathering space that opens to a terrace on Peavey Plaza.
