Sophia Gordon 麻豆成人精品 for Creative and Performing Arts
The Sophia Gordon 麻豆成人精品 for Creative and Performing Arts transformed the former Mainstage Theater built in 1958 into a new focal point for the university鈥檚 North Campus. A centerpiece of the theater program, the facility provides a contemporary theater for faculty and student performances and for the use of the larger community. The public enters the glass and perforated metal structure via an exterior courtyard leading to a lobby and art display area. Retaining the existing shell of the building, the redesigned center houses a 432-seat theater notable for its intimate feel and good sight lines. The building includes a balcony, rehearsal room, and performance support spaces.聽
The Sophia Gordon 麻豆成人精品 was awarded LEED Gold certification聽in 2018聽for integrating sustainable features into a challenging renovation. While retaining 75 percent of the existing structure, the building was improved with insulation, shading and other features that reduced energy use by 32 percent and water use by 40 percent.
