Soiva – meaning resonant or musical – is a building which houses two music schools teaching rhythmic and classical music. All spaces across five stories are integrated via a central atrium. The ground floor lobby doubles as a foyer and has dark colors and earthy textures, like deeper bass frequencies in comparison with the upper and more private floors, which have a brighter, softer, and cozier appearance. The facades and interiors allude to music genres: the black of rock’n’roll and the brass of classical instruments. The rhythm of the window openings in the black brickwork echoes musical notation, making each room unique. One performance hall opens to the street through an enormous window, making music present in the urban fabric.
