Building music into the city: on three concert halls designed by Henning Larsen Architects / Christian Bundegaard -- Harpa, Reykjavik Concert Hall and Conference Center -- Copenhagen Opera House -- Uppsala Concert and Congress Hall -- Palacio de Congresos -- The music venues of Henning Larsen Architects / Christian Bundegaard -- On architecture / Henning Larsen -- Project information -- Project credits.
"Conceived by the Danish architectural offices of Henning Larsen, the new concert hall located at the old harbor of the Icelandic capital is a symbol of hope, since it was successfully completed despite the financial crisis. With the Icelandic female name of Harpa, or Harp, the concert hall and conference center is home to the national symphony orchestra and the opera. The spectacular entry fa�cade, made of over one thousand polygonal glass units modeled after the island's basalt pillars, was created in collaboration with Olafur Eliasson (b. 1967 in Copenhagen). This publication presents the building from the initial design in 2005 to its completion in May 2011, and demonstrates how nature can be used as an exemplary source of inspiration to allow architecture to dematerialize."--Artbook web site.
