Flexibility, creativity, safety, and comfort are the main ideas behind Daniel Valle’s auditorium room for the German School Seoul, translated into a smart and creative storage system.

Daniel Valle’s design proposal is composed of three main features that configure an overall vision for the Auditorium Room of the German School Seoul.
This vision is built up around the idea of flexibility, creativity, safety, and comfort.

The first design feature is a smart, efficient, and creative storage system to house all the musical instruments and other elements that are currently distributed along the room with no apparent order. The second feature is composed of two small rooms built inside the large room; the band rehearsal’s room and the office for the music teacher. The band’s room is mobile so that it can be positioned any place around the room.

The third feature is a seating area meant to be occupied by students and staff in a casual way, as a lounge area that can be broken into individual units (stools) allowing multiple ways to organize a meeting, game, class, or lecture. It is up to the imagination of users to configure numberless organizations.
