Harpa - Reykjavik, Iceland - Concert Halls on Waymarking.com

Harpa is a concert hall and conference centre in Reykjavík, Iceland. The opening concert was held on May 4, 2011.

The structure consists of a steel framework clad with irregularly-shaped glass panels of different colours.

The main designers of the Harpa Reykjavík Concert Hall and Conference Centre are Danish architectural firm Henning Larsen Architects and Icelandic architectural firm Batteríið Architects.

The artist Ólafur Elíasson designed the south facade and developed the principle for the remaining north/east/west facades and roof in collaboration with Henning Larsen Architects and Batteríið Architects.

Elíasson deploys light, colour, and natural phenomena to test how physical movement, sensual engagement, and the interaction of body and brain influence our perception of our surroundings.

Harpa is the home of the Iceland Symphony Orchestra and of the Icelandic Opera.

There are daily guided tours at 11.00 and 15.30 everyday.
Price 1500 ISK ( Around 10 Euros)
