BUDAPEST, Jan 25 — With its serrated glass walls and perforated roof that allows natural light to permeate its halls, Budapest’s futuristic new concert hall aims to create harmony between nature and music, giving visitors an uplifting experience.

The building, some say, resembles a giant mushroom with its perforated roof which channels light to all its levels via 100 so-called “light wells”, or large holes. “Behind the concert stage a glass surface was created which can be adjusted. There are about one metre large glass panels which can be individually adjusted, and with this the sound can be channelled up towards the ceiling where the sound is absorbed.”
