An amazing project that presents a variety of character as viewed from different perspectives. Concrete masonry provided continuity of design features throughout – from retaining walls to the stage house tower, from exteriors to interiors – while serving as a structural material. Harvest Split Face and 4-Score Splits were used, as well as glass block for illumination effects around the cross-shaped projections. Radius split units were used for rounded columns in the auditorium.
