THE PIANO HOUSE

The Piano House is a building located in Huainan, China, in which music students rehearse and whose structure mimics a piano and a violin.

The Piano House. It is so very attractive and elegant, but do not want to become a professional musician, you will visit the area in which is located just to see it with your own eyes.

The impressive architecture was carried out in 2007 by engineers at the University of Technology, Hefei. They were inspired by a grand piano and a violin real and adapted to expand 50:1 scale. The piano serves as offices and meeting rooms, exhibition and testing. For its part, the violin is constructed of glass and is located inside the building entrance and stairs to access it.

Inside, apart from the rooms of the conservatory students practice, have exposed several sketches and models of projects that the city wants to implement. Also, visitors have a large number of windows, which can see the city of Huainan. Outside, the huge grand piano legs offer an indoor playground where young people often gather to relax between rehearsals.

In closing, when night falls, the edge of the structure is illuminated, suggesting the outline of the piano and violin, and the strings of the latter.

I really like this building a lot, because the architecture is very artistic, with great imagination. aside from all that is that is precisely what is focused on a school of music. And another thing I like about the building is that it is unlike anything we're used to seeing in architecture today.
