KÀ by Cirque du Soleil | Behind the Blockbuster: Theatre

The KÀ theatre was the first live performance space to incorporate speakers into every seat. With more than 5,000 speakers, over 3,000 lighting instruments, and truly impressive moving platforms, the theatre at MGM Grand in Las Vegas is one of the most phenomenal stage accomplishments Cirque du Soleil has ever achieved.

Shangai-based design studio Archi-Union Architects designed this Tea House and Library. Completed in 2011, this contemporary tea house is located in the backyard of their office, in Yangpu District, Shanghai, China.

According to the architects: “The Tea House is constructed from salvaged parts of a  collapsed warehouse roof. The site was extremely constricted with walls on three sides, with only one side facing towards an open space that contains a pool. The space was further restricted by a mature tree.The design tries to embody harmony by integrating enclosure and openness, delightful space and logical construction and other complicated relations.

This contemporary Chinese property reacts to the site’s environment; the plan layout is a logically obscure quadrilateral, thus maximising the amount of space. It is divided into three parts. A covered public area is formed towards the open space with the pool, with an enclosed tea house at ground level and library on the first floor where a small triangular balcony extends around the existing tree. Other more private spaces exist such as a lounge, reading room and service room which are arranged towards the rear of the building; a delightful transitional space was created to connect the public space and the private spaces.” Images by Zhonghai Shen.
