The new Kings Place arts centre, designed by architects Dixon Jones, has opened in Kings Cross, central London.
The development includes a 420-seat auditorium, a 200- seat flexible space for concerts and conferences, teaching rooms, rehearsal rooms, a restaurant and office space.
The building consists of a public ground-floor area on the waterfront, two lower levels featuring music and arts areas arranged around a central atrium, and seven floors of offices.
The main concert hall has been designed as a box that sits on rubber springs to give it acoustic separation from the rest of the building. Oak veneer has been used extensively in the hall, which features raked stalls and an upper gallery.
Arup worked with Dixon Jones providing specialist acoustic consultancy and engineerings services.
