[1] Besides the concert hall itself, the building houses seminar rooms, academic staff offices, classrooms and studios for the university's Faculty of Music and Performance Arts, together with an arena theatre for performances from theatre studies students.

Architects İlhan Kural and Erkut Şahinbaş designed a central hall type building.

While the concert hall, theatre building, and studios are located towards the core of the building to provide sound isolation, offices and classrooms are located facing outwards and around the core, to provide the necessary exposure to daylight.

[2] The structure was built by construction company Tepe, itself owned by Bilkent University.

The building hosts concerts in its concert hall for 750 seats and its foyer, performances of theatre students in its arena theatre for 200 seats and houses studios, seminar rooms, classrooms, a cafeteria and a café.
