Renzo Piano Building Workshop
Rom, Italy
56,000 m²
350,000 m³
August 2000 – September 2003
The auditorium consists of three concert halls with 2,700, 1,200, and 700 seats, an open-air arena, a museum for musical instruments, a library, restaurants, offices, and service facilities. Renzo Piano designed the modern architecture by combining it with typical Roman building materials such as travertine, terracotta tiles, and curved lead roofing. It is located in the Parioli district on Via Flaminia.
The Parco della Musica Auditorium is one of our Wall of Fame projects. These are projects we are particularly proud of. They have not only helped our respective clients, but also us as a company.
Why the auditorium in Rome deserves a place on our Wall of Fame:
- Star architect: The design comes from the mind of star architect Renzo Piano
- Modernity meets tradition: In addition to clear forms and lots of concrete, Renzo Piano also used typical Roman building materials such as travertine, terracotta tiles, and curved lead roofing
- Back on track: The Drees & Sommer team got the halted construction work back on track and ensured that the opening date was met
Additional value
- Economic and technical problems overcome: stagnant construction business brought back to life again
- Official opening deadline met
Individual services
- Construction management
- Health and safety coordination
