New World Center

Miami Beach, Florida, USA
Rui Dias-Aidos

This 756-seat interactive, concert hall presented us with a unique challenge — to integrate Internet2 technology, 360-degree video projection, and advanced audio systems, allowing world-wide simultaneous connectivity for distance teaching and performances.

1,200
lighting fixtures ranging from LED, conventional and moving lighting
17
miles of fiber optic cable
3
Ultra High Definition (UHD) broadcast suite/control rooms

Inside the new 100,000-square-foot complex, we integrated cutting-edge equipment, seating, and lighting design seamlessly with Frank Gehry’s signature architecture, all while meeting the complex artistic and technical flexibility desired by the New World Symphony. The concert hall’s stage is composed of 10 mechanized lifts which can operate independently or as a single unit. When the lifts are lowered and the seating sections are retracted, the highly flexible space becomes a flat floor venue, holding up to 1,200 for parties, and banquets.
