Segerstrom Hall—A review of concept, design process, and results
A. Harold Marshall · The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America · 1986
The recently opened Segerstrom Hall in Orange County, California is a 3000-seat directed reflection sequence (DRS) hall that responds in a unique asymmetrical way to the competing demands for theater and symphony. This paper reviews the origins of this concept, the design process by which it was realized, and the model study at 1:10 scale carried out in New Zealand. Comparisons between modeled results and final results in the hall will be presented.
