The space was designed by architect Ivar Tengbom and opened in 1926 as part of the concert hall project. Artist Isaac Grünewald completed the wall and ceiling paintings during the same period, establishing its visual identity from the start.
The room is named after artist Isaac Grünewald, who created the painted decorations. The artwork combines musical themes with classical influences that reflect how music and visual art were seen as connected forms of expression.
