Le Prisme Concert Hall
Aurillac, France
YEAR
2007
SIZE
10,000 sqft - 25,000 sqft
BUDGET
$10M - 50M
The building is a new venue for concert, theatre, trade fairs and sports events located on the
ouskirts of the city centre, adjacent to the main train station. As the venue is never permanently
inhabited, the building is essentially a chamber for ephemeral events. The main events space
accommodates up to 4,300 people during performances and contains retractable seating and
a demountable stage for versatility.
During the day, the sunlight plays with the 25,000 bespoke pyramidal-shaped glass bricks
embedded in the facade, producing glimmering lighting effects and dramatic shadows. In the
evening the building awakens as the Fresnel lens-like surfaces of the glass bricks amplify the
intensity of the controllable coloured lighting scheme, producing a glittering solitaire in the
landscape.
