south end performing arts school william fox arch 2140 urban institutions directed by chana haouzi 2015

flatten This proposal for the south end performing arts school is one that re-evaluates school typology. The organization and does not prioritize one program or discipline. The is a soft rounded form, but moving inward, the building creates a new set of internal orthogonal planning. Rather than giving the assigned dance, theater, and music departments their own wings, the building unites them and makes them indistinguishable.

Programs are given light and are connected by numerous which make the building transparent and light.
