Alhamra Arts Council, Theatre and cultural complex in Lahore, Pakistan
The red brick structure combines multiple octagonal and hexagonal buildings interconnected through courtyards, creating various performance and exhibition spaces within the complex.
Architect Nayyar Ali Dada designed the initial 1000-seat auditorium in 1979, followed by three construction phases completed in 1992 with additional theaters and galleries.
The complex contains an art museum displaying over 200 works, including paintings, prints, sculptures, and ceramics across 12,000 square feet of exhibition space.
Located at 68-Mall Road, the center features multiple halls for performances, an art gallery spanning 11,000 square feet, and spaces for educational workshops.
The architectural design incorporates polygonal shapes throughout the building to enhance acoustic performance during theatrical and musical presentations.
