The Samsung Performing Arts Theatre, owned by Ayala Land Inc. with Samsung as the naming sponsor, is a world-class venue designed to host both local and international shows. Located in Circuit Makati, a development project by Ayala Land, the theatre is surrounded by a shopping mall, hotels, residential towers, and offices, making it a prime location for entertainment and leisure.
Venue Details: The theatre boasts a seating capacity of 1,500 and is divided into four sections: orchestra, lodge, balcony 1, and balcony 2. Spanning 10 floors, the theatre includes back-of-house facilities such as a rehearsal hall, dressing rooms, a souvenir shop, concession areas, and a function room for private gatherings.
To ensure the theatre meets its desired performance standards, the acoustics designer selected ROCKWOOL Acoustic DD and Cool N Comfort SL products for their superior acoustic properties. The acoustic treatment includes exposed panel and membrane-type acoustic panels with ROCKWOOL stone wool to enhance acoustic absorption and control noise transfer. The back-of-house facilities are also acoustically treated to prevent any unwanted noise from interfering with performances.
For the pitched metal roof, the Cool N Comfort RL940 blanket was used for both thermal and acoustic control, ensuring audience comfort during performances. Additionally, the HVAC ducts were lined with ROCKWOOL stone wool to control fan noise. The fire safety, thermal, and acoustic properties of ROCKWOOL products were key factors in their selection for this project.
