Perth Concert Hall

This important public sector project gives the city of Perth a concert hall that also doubles as a conference venue.

The Hall’s main auditorium is able to seat an audience of 1,400; for maximum comfort it was important to ensure that ventilation would work efficiently, while ensuring a low energy design solution at the same time. For this reason Computational Fluid Dynamics modelling was used. This helped simulate natural ventilation concepts within the venue’s foyer.
