The city's historical stream delta is the theme for the landscape design of the area around HOM. It references a transformed historic landscape with strong, urban, contemporary moves. The water's natural pattern of movement is represented by lit curved lines.
The areas around the House of Music will form multipurpose and active spaces with plenty of room for concerts and outdoor events. These are functional spaces that are designed for high load and suited for all kinds of service traffic. It is a robust and practically designed outdoor space.
In the evening the square dresses up in gala and turns into a delta of light and movement. The festive dress sweeps lighting across the stonepaved surfaces and gives this special place in the city its distinctive feature - a visual interpretation of music flowing out of the building. Through the light you are led naturally from all directions to the entrance of the House of Music and to view the sky and the ships in the fjord.
