An artist’s vision is brought to life
The auditorium for the Humanities
Division of Uppsala University
(Humanistiska Teatern) is an
innovative and unique building
designed in the shape of a horseshoe.
Unlike traditional lecture halls, the
horseshoe-shaped design of this unique
building allows all in the auditorium to
see and hear each other, encouraging
both speakers and attendees to
participate in lectures and debates.
This unusual building is encapsulated
in a spectacular facade created from
over 300 perforated aluminium sheets.
The vision of artist Ann Lislegaard has
been brought to life by using RMIG
ImagePerf technology to transfer her
intricate design to the metal sheets.
