Abstract
Live music and performance have been an integral part of the entertainment industry for decades. This research focuses on how the live experience can be enhanced, to benefit both the performer and audience. Utilizing historically effective design strategies, material choices, and acoustic comparisons in the design process to create a venue like no other. The hall is designed with the optimization of acoustics in mind. This is focused within un-amplified performance halls which have the capability to transform into amplified halls. Simulations of the halls determined the acoustic capability within each, and what kinds of performances can take place. This allows for more versatility within the space, and more use than one singular venue can offer.
