Wrapped Transparency
Abstract: Classic Theatre: 800 seats Multi-Form Theatre: 600 seats Eparimental Theatre: 400 seats Letting three theatres loose in a South Beach park is no small feet. The relationship of these three masses to each other as well as site context, must be considered carefully. After careful study of Jean Nouvel ‘s Paris Philharmonie we devised a method in which our theatres became encased in layers of circulation and program. This helped us highlight the qualities which are important to our scheme. Allow for free and open access using the building as a gateway to the park. Shared mobius circulation and lobby spaces result. The use of a layered strategy afford greater control of the light which is allowed to enter the building. Light is filtered through scoopes in the facade, it then penetrates deaper through holes in the midskin. The theatre shell does not let light pass and creates a quality controled theatre interior.

3 There is an open and clear layout in this design. Lobby is located in the middle and it has a direct access to the rest of the programs. People can experiment the 8 (Infinitive figure) circulation in plan view through the lobby areas. Based on human activities natural light has been controlled through the size of the openings.There is lots of natural light in the lobby because that is the most crowded area in the building. Light gets less and less as you go toward the theater and more private area.
