DESIGN

The Flex boasts a striking architectural design that combines a reinforced concrete panel facade with a sturdy steel structure. The building’s exterior features a combination of smooth and textured concrete panels, creating a dynamic visual effect that is both modern and industrial, fitting into the Crossroads well. The use of concrete panels also serves a practical purpose, providing additional durability and strength to the building’s facade. The use of steel adds to the industrial and modern feel of the interior spaces as well. The steel structure is left exposed, adding to the industrial aesthetic of the space and showcasing the unique mechanics that provide for the moveable mezzanines. The reinforced concrete panel facade and steel structure provide not only an impressive visual impact, but also serve as key components of the building’s sustainability. The materials used in the construction of the building are environmentally friendly, and the reinforced concrete panels provide excellent insulation and energy efficiency. In addition to its striking architectural design, the event space building is also designed with accessibility in mind. The building includes elevators for easy access to the mezzanine levels, with egress stair towers on all four corners of the seating bowl. Overall, the combination of reinforced concrete panels and steel structure create a statement in the Crossroads arts district with this new, innovative event space.
