京都音樂廳(09-04)

The day started with the Kyoto Concert Hall by Isozaki. It is a composition of a cylinder, a box and a bunch of curves (piano? signs on music sheets?). The cylinder contains the space for the ensamble of murata(?). The exterior of the cylinder is black with the material of stone (artificial) plates.

The site plan of this architecture is special in that the entrances facing the main road are service entrances, such as performer's entrance, loading docks, and garage entrance. The main entrance for audiences is at the corner couryard. The abnormal site plan actually distinguishes Isozaki from us, the ordinary designers.
