A true celebration of the work. The immersive engagement made you forget you were on a website. The content was perfectly timed, drawing you into a documentary you weren’t even planning on delving into. It pushed boundaries and created seamless, special moments. This is the kind of piece one aspires to create in their career.
Description
To celebrate the 20th Anniversary of Frank Gehry's Walt Disney Concert Hall, Getty partnered with Resn to create Sculpting Harmony, an interactive exhibition that offers a behind-the-scenes look at this cultural masterpiece. Featuring a vast array of Getty’s archival materials, interactive 3D renderings, stunning aerial photography, a symphonic soundtrack, and new scholarship, Sculpting Harmony delves deep into the creative process behind the concert hall.
Compelling new interviews with Frank Gehry reveal the insights, inspirations, and innovative techniques that shaped the hall's unique form. Visitors can explore the exhibition through the website's rich content, which documents the hall’s design and construction. Combining Getty's scholarship with Resn's interactive expertise, Sculpting Harmony creates an engaging platform that educates and inspires, providing a deeper appreciation for the architectural genius behind this iconic structure.
