Wuxi Grand Theater

PROJECT DETAILS

Wuxi Grand Theater

Wuxi Grand Theater, designed by Pekka Salminen. The project uses bamboo in the interior as well as exterior of the Opera Theater. This is a 1st in the theater construction where bamboo replaces all wood material to give a natural look and feel. In the main auditorium solid bamboo material creates a “banded” space. The sustainable technical bamboo material was cut with latest CNC technology, and the shape and material were developed to match our acoustical demands.
