Queen Silvia Concert Hall is the winner of the Nordic Lighting Design Award 2024

We are proud to announce that the Queen Silvia Concert Hall is the recipient of the prestigious Nordic Lighting Design Award 2024!

On Lysets dag, November 13th, the winner was announced after close observation and testing by the committee. In the motivation for the Queen Silvia Concert hall as the winner, special emphasis was put on how the lighting does not disturb the excellent acoustics of the hall. The jury was also impressed with how the lighting designers, on a very low budget, have managed to create a user-friendly system which enhances the architecture of the hall while meeting the high demands on acoustics and flexibility of the space.

From the press release from Lyskultur:

“Wherever you look, you experience a glare free lighting environment. At the same time it fulfills all the needs to make unique and various lighting solutions for the different events which occur in the hall. The user-friendly control system gives staff the ability to transform the hall as desired. With the push on a button, a functional lit classroom will be transformed into a stylish lit concert hall. A hall with a special, emotional and colorful lighting gives the audience the possibility to experience the special scenic atmosphere of this amazing concert hall.”

The Queen Silvia Concert Hall is honoured to have received this award, and want to thank both Lyskultur and contributors to the project:
