Music in a Temporary Building
The Isarphilharmonie by gmp architects in Munich forms the centre of the Gasteig HP8 with the historic Hall E and is planned as a temporary performance venue. The design combines sustainable modular timber construction with the highest acoustic requirements. The design allows for short construction times and easy dismantling and reconstruction.
The new building is adjacent to the converted, listed transformer hall. Three further modular buildings for the Gasteig institutions – the City Library and Adult Education Centre, and the University of Music and Performing Arts – complete the ensemble.
