Musikhuset - Front hall

• The form aspect
- Size
- Surfaces
- Inputs
- Structural elements (columns, immersion)
- What elements could create or define space?
Very large and clear room. Not a lot of furtiture or other objects.
The room is structured by the colums of lamps hanging from the ceiling. The floor is made of some sort of stone tiles. To the left of the entrance, there is a exhibition of several large posters by AAA-students. in front of the entrance the box office windows are places, with a lot of free space in front.

• The practical functional aspect
- What is this type of space?
- Kitchen, living room, bathroom, bedroom
- What types of spaces could you imagine to meet in a museum?
- What part of the room?
Used for exibition, buying tickets, standing in line for tickets, waitingroom for between shows.

• The scenographic-social aspect
- How can one understand the conceptual rituals?
- What are the rituals performed in the space?
- What expectations do people have, what should they do in the space?
- How can space indicate a certain behavior? Color, sound, light content?
Because of the large open area, it is easy to be in isolated groups, however, if the place is crowded, one has to walk a twisty route between the groups, thereby possibly meeting new people, at least for an “excuse me..”. The room is well lid, with a warm color, achieving a delightful space to stay in.

• The iconographic-important aspect
- How can a facility use known symbols?
- How can the involvement of symbols influence the use of a space?
???

• The visual-experiential or aesthetic aspect
- Visual aesthetics versus interaction aesthetics?
- We need to think how aesthetics underpin the desired use of the space
Very rough, very heavy looking, very solid. Looking like painted concrete (which it also is).
