The Sydney Opera House
This multi-venue performing arts center in Sydney Australia has seven performance venues the Concert Hall, the Opera Theater, Playhouse, Drama Theater, The Studio, the Forecourt and the Utzon Room. As well as some 1000 rooms, including five theaters, five rehearsal studios, two main halls, four restaurants, six bars and several souvenir shops. This structure is beautifully built to tower over the water, with its shells that look like sails on the water.
It proves itself of good design for all not only in its large capacity to enthrall you into the world of music and art but also be extremely efficient for everything that of which it was intended. The opera was was made not only to host some of the worlds greatest musicians and artist but also for it to be marveled in its complex structure and not take away from the music but to emphasize it and make it a full body experience. The opera house enables people of all different backgrounds to come together and experience not simply music but the impact of it flowing throughout the structure and impacting their surroundings.
