An intense collaborative process between the client, an artist/filmmaker, and the architects resulted in a design that not only addresses the spatial flexibility needed to accommodate artists, musicians, and filmmakers within an event space but also provides a private, urban space that flows between indoors and outdoors in the adjacent residential area. Our design employs "green" strategies including (1) choice of materials with low environmental impact, (2) energy efficiency of appliances, mechanical systems, and passive design systems, including a solar PV array and new courtyard, (3) enhanced day-lighting, and (4) design for flexibility, durability, and low maintenance.CREDITS: Collaboration with Thread Collective.
