OODA’s scheme for
the Busan Opera House engages with the natural topography, articulating a
multi levelled building and integrating the different cultural
activities and program seamlessly. The dominant flow circulation,
flexibility and concept strategy enables full accessibility.
The design concept creates spaces that blur the difference between
building and landscape, intensifying the fluidity between interior and
exterior spaces, indoor and outdoor venues. The formal approach is
driven from the natural proportion of the program merged with
inspirational themes (like sea shells – music – and butterfly typical
pacific fish) that allows the building to assume its own unique charm
and identity. The formal image with its vibrant and meaningful presence
helps to create a brand new-age landmark for South Korea as a strong
symbolic voice to the world.

The Opera Auditorium
has a pioneering and innovative design concept, it is as flexible and
efficient as it is elegantly sculpted. The center area can rotate around
itself so in the same space it is possible to have an Opera with all
its requirements, but also some more intimate concert and a centered
stage venue allowing to have audience all around.
The Multi Purpose Theatre has its own identity and articulation.
According the design concept it could be used from multiple perspectives
and programmatic needs.
The auxiliary facilities (high level restaurants, café/bars,
shopping, convention center, exhibition space, banquet hall, event room,
etc) flows all along the both main structures creating a perfect bind
between all.
The building envelope is devised as a continuous skin that is
embedded with multiple levels of program. Natural light, cross
ventilation, access and views become the key operators of the transition
between interior and exterior.
The organic morphology blends perfectly with the landscape and it´s
designed to become landscape and to symbolize the new Busan Spirit and
identity.
