Villa Penisi in Musica
Architectural Acoustics Laboratory | Acireale, Sicily 2017
Architect with Scholarship
“Open Air lab and workshop for DIY and acoustic setting of ReS (Resonant String shell) a temporary wooden pavilion for the music and the outdoor entertainment. ReS will be self-built, furnished, and lighted up”. Designed as a real scenic machine for outdoor chamber music, it is made with cheap materials and elementary techniques, reversible, and sustainable by nature. Like the speaker of a trumpet or an old gramophone ReS projects and orientates acoustic music – specifically chamber music – towards the audience which can offer excellent listening performance even outdoors. How a ReS musical instrument “matches” by adjusting the orientation of the panels with which it resonates.
