The Associations of Polish Architects SARP in Katowice has chosen an urban and architectural concept of the new seat of the National Polish Radio Symphony Orchestra in Katowice. The winning project was prepared by Konior Studio, known for the realization of “Symfonia” - the extension of Music Academy in Katowice.
The future, 1650-seat concert hall will be surrounded by foyer and other smaller rooms which create two separated spaces – like a box in a box. The concept also assumes a chamber concert hall for 300 spectators and a jazz basement.
The NPRSO building will be localized near the future Silesian Museum and International Convention Center in the neighbourhood of “Spodek”.
Predicted cost of the development is 160 mln zlotys ($54 mln).
