for providing the following description:

库奥皮奥城市剧院建于1960年代，由Helmer Stenros和Risto-Veikko Luukkonen合作设计，内部拥有一个200座的多功能剧场，屋顶上有一个4米高的塔作为标志物。

新的扩建与翻新首先将屋顶高塔增高，再在外面设置了一圈玻璃灯箱，给剧院顶部戴了一个五彩霓虹“帽子”。然后第二个措施是将一个包含小剧院的垂直长方体插入进老剧院中。新剧院简洁的体量上覆盖着永恒而美丽的折面白色混凝土板，与老剧院的白色混凝土板，玻璃以及陶土砖形成相得益彰的并存效果。新体之中的小剧院墙面也采用了语言类似的折面板，为室内营造出优秀的音效。

The existing Kuopio City Theatre is a 1960’s modernist building by architects Helmer Stenros and Risto-Veikko Luukkonen. The expansion includes a new 200-seat studio stage with flexible seating and stage mechanics. New spaces are also provided for loading and logistics, costume manufacturing and storage, and support functions of the new stage.

The only visible alteration when approaching the theatre from the city centre is the four meter elevation of the theatre tower. The stage technology for the main stage will be completely updated, and the current tower has to be raised. The add-on will form a glowing glass lantern, leaving the distinctive shape of the old tower recognizable.

The actual expansion is a simple rectangular volume located perpendicularly to the existing volume. The new stage connects to the main stage like a horizontal version of the stage tower. It is a solid, contemporary addition which continues and complements the old structure with equal quality and permanence.

The public foyer is extended between the new and old volume as a bridge-like angled space, which floats above the new outdoor auditorium which is created between the old and new volume.

The old building has a beautiful and timeless material palette consisting of white concrete panels, glass and terracotta tiles. The extension is clad in white concrete panels with a wrinkled, varying surface form, which indicates a similar acoustically optimized cladding inside the new hall.
