L.A. Philharmonic Concert Hall

Frank O. Gehry won the competition for the building in 1990 with a design of seemingly free- floating curved walls clad in sandstone. Due to budget cuts the building features now an expressive titanium facade with ever-changing reflections of the harsh southern California light. The interior in contrast is a warm landscape with plaster and wood cladding.
The geometry proved to be the biggest challenge in the design process and was resolved only through employing latest - technology 3D modeling software Catia.
