Sydney Modern Project: The Tank Acoustic Design
THE TANK ACOUSTIC DESIGN IN SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA
The Sydney Modern Project involved the expansion of the Art Gallery of New South Wales, including the construction of a new underground performance space called The Tank. The acoustic design was a key consideration, with Arup Acoustics collaborating with the architects and the client to create a space that could support a range of events. The project was initiated by the Art Gallery of NSW, Arup Acoustics, architects SANAA, and Infrastructure NSW, and was implemented in 2022.
