Challenge	The Zaryadye Concert Hall, located in Moscow, is a unique project that has been recognized as one of the best concert venues globally. The challenge was to design and construct a concert hall that would seamlessly blend into the landscape of the Zaryadye Park. The hall was to be placed on an artificially created hill in the park, and it was crucial that it became an organic part of the park. The design also had to accommodate a transparent glass 'bark' with solar panels, a pedestrian zone, and an amphitheater that seats 1500 people. The hall was to be covered with a hill, and the hill was to be covered with the 'bark'. A special microclimate was to be created under the 'bark', where trees and herbaceous plants were to be planted. The design process was complex, involving changes to the shape of the 'bark' and the relocation of the entrance. The hall's internal architecture was also challenging, with requirements for excellent acoustics for classical music concerts and the ability to accommodate modern projects of various genres.

The hall's design was performed in Archicad, and curved surfaces were modeled in Rhino and then imported. The hall's finish was designed using Grasshopper, where the non-repeating microrelief of the hall walls were modeled. The designers also used Grasshopper to analyze visibility from the audience.

Impact #1	The Zaryadye Concert Hall is a testament to the successful integration of innovative design and construction techniques. The hall's unique 'bark' design, which incorporates solar panels and a special microclimate for plant life, has made it an organic part of the Zaryadye Park. The hall's internal architecture, which was designed to accommodate both classical music concerts and modern projects of various genres, has made it one of the best concert venues in the world. The use of Archicad, Rhino, and Grasshopper in the design process has demonstrated the potential of these tools in creating complex and innovative architectural solutions. Despite the project's complexity and tight deadlines, the team was able to complete it in a relatively short time, demonstrating their efficiency and expertise.

Benefit #1	The project was completed in three and a half years, significantly faster than similar projects such as the Sydney Opera house which took 14 years and the Elbe Philharmonic in Hamburg which took 10 years.
Benefit #2	The concert hall includes a great hall with 1600 seats and a smaller one with 400, plus a complex of artistic areas.
Benefit #3	The amphitheater outside the hall seats 1500 people.
