Abstract
In 2016, a Conservatorium of Music made a significant decision to move their music teaching and performance facilities, to a nearby vacated building situated 3km away. From the outset, the move presented the design team to deliver a state-of-the-art Conservatorium of Music, with several challenges due to the spatial and building constraints. Among the most notable of these challenges was the limited volume within the existing building which is an essential requirement for optimal music performance spaces. This paper outlines the users' expectations—which were gathered through an acoustic questionnaire, design process, details the specific challenges faced by the design team, and presents the design solutions devised to overcome these problems. The Conservatorium of Music opened in early 2023 and has been well received by users and audiences.
