Wild Beast Pavilion

Valencia, Santa Clarita, CA, United States

YEAR
2009
Clad in copper-hued shingles, and nestled into the berm which flanks the entry drive, the Wildbeast Pavilion is both a recital hall and an outdoor performance shell.  HplusF conceived of this performance space much as one might design a musical instrument, with an acoustically resonant form, simple adjustments to enhance performances, and functional, yet aesthetically rewarding materials.  The main volume is defined by a curving, three-dimensional form which, much like the soundboard for a stringed instrument, forms the principle structure as well as an acoustically appropriate cavity.  It is complemented by a rank of regulating windowpanes set to create a clerestory, and operated by computer-controlled servos, which act to further "tune" the resonance of the volume.  Below these windows, and extending the width of the room, are monumental retracting panels which open to convert the space into an outdoor pavilion.
