Based on what you have seen and read about this project, how would you grade it? Use the stars below to indicate your assessment, five stars being the highest rating.
Program: The 58,000-square-foot venue includes a 250-seat performance hall, fifty-six individual music instruction studios, classrooms, group studios, and administration offices.
Design concept and solution: The MacPhail Center for Music’s former facility lacked appropriate acoustical spaces to meet its needs. James Dayton Design created a new center with acoustically superior design that merges with the surrounding industrial context. A transparent base opens the school to the community; the concrete and steel-framed building is clad in galvanized and Corten steel panels in deference to the adjacent buildings.
