At that time, 21 architecture offices from all around the world were invited to deliver a conceptual plan of what Casa da M\u00fasica should look like.<br>As the deadline was very tight, only a handful of projects were presented &#8211; among them, one by the famous Dutch architect Rem Kolhaas. What most people don&#8217;t know is that the project had already been made &#8211; actually, it was designed to be a house for a Dutch family!<br>If you look to Casa da M\u00fasica, there&#8217;s a big concert hall &#8211; <em>on the previous project it was the living room of the Dutch family house<\/em> -, surrounded by smaller rooms and chambers &#8211; that were supposed to be the kitchen, the bedrooms, the library&#8230; quite surprising, no?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2.&nbsp;The inhabitants of Porto used to HATE Casa da M\u00fasica!<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"668\" height=\"431\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-12636 size-full\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/view-casa-musica-porto.jpg\" alt=\"view casa musica porto\"><br>When it was built, it\u00a0was very controversial.<br>First of all, in order to build this monument, the ancient terminal of the <a href=\"http:\/\/portoalities.com\/how-to-travel-by-tram-in-porto\/\">trams of Porto<\/a> was demolished.<br>Secondly, the building doesn&#8217;t really match the buildings in the surroundings. In fact, it is even taller than all the buildings nearby! In such a way this topic was discussed that even Siza Vieira, the talented architect from Porto, said that &#8220;Casa da M\u00fasica is a magnificent project at a terrible location&#8221;.<br>Nowadays, we made amends with Casa da M\u00fasica, and we can&#8217;t picture Porto without this beautiful monument \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3.

The architect wanted the building to be part not only of the cultural and social life of Porto, and wanted to invite everyone to join Casa da M\u00fasica.<br>Something else that you probably don&#8217;t know is that the curved glass serves a purpose. Glass reflects sounds in one direction, so in order to keep the acoustics perfect, they used curved glass &#8211; this way, the sound is reflected in many directions and not just one.<br>Another&nbsp;secret Portuguese secret&nbsp;is the golden pattern on the wooden walls of Sala Suggia. These are an homage to the golden leaf that it&#8217;s commonly found in Portuguese churches. And, on the particular case of Casa da M\u00fasica, this golden pattern carved in wood represents &#8220;the veins&#8221; of this amazing monument.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4.

Rem Kolhaas wanted to pay homage to the most important periods of the history of music, and there are several decorative elements portraying this. The most important ones are the two fake pipe organs located at the Sala Suggia, the main concert room of this concert hall. One is dedicated to the baroque period, whereas the other one is dedicated to the romanticism.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5.

Nonetheless, as Porto and Rotterdam, in the Netherlands were both European capitals of Culture in 2001, and the architect Rem Kolhaas is Dutch, the blue tiles were manufactured in Portugal but using the colour Delft blue.<br>Another\u00a0secret Portuguese secret\u00a0is the golden pattern on the wooden walls of Sala Suggia. These are an homage to the golden leaf that it&#8217;s commonly found in Portuguese churches.
