Hung from timber roof trusses, the Canopy Walk on the second floor envelops the lobby, providing a welcoming space for gathering before and after the show and during intermission.
The canopy walk is hung from wooden battens performing in tension, and their splayed geometry animates the facade. At night, the theater glows from within, drawing interest and activity to this important local and regional cultural anchor. The screen pattern follows the load path of the structure. The wood battens are bundled at the glulam beams to minimize the load at mid-span and are offset to distribute the load evenly. The flared detail at the lower cord connects the battens and beams without any mechanical fasteners. Made locally with conventional woodworking tools, the battens are steamed before the wedges are inserted.
The flared connection is designed to slide in and up into a matching groove in the glulam. An undercut prevents it from slipping forward when in its locked position. This innovative use of wood in tension aims to extend the drama of performance from the main stage to the lobby and streetscape beyond, simultaneously revealing the forces and materials that make the structure possible. While theaters are by default an energy-intensive building typology, efforts were taken to maximize sustainability, including purchasing Green Power, employing an innovative HVAC system that uses the concept of displacement ventilation, and utilizing a green roof and native landscaping to reduce heat lost, run-off, and the need for irrigation.

Brick from the structure previously on the site was re-used in the new theater for its acoustic properties. The brick was sorted, cleaned, and glazed before being assembled into a vibrant acoustic screen for the main stage theater.

Timber felled by constructed was reused as millwork and furniture for the interiors. In general, materials were selected based on their recycled and regional content, low VOC levels, and on-site recyclability. Low-emitting and zero-VOC paints and coatings, as well as adhesives and sealants, were employed to ensure the indoor environmental quality of the project. All interior finishes are low-emitting and compliant with sustainable standards for VOC levels. The Studio works across types and scales of projects—from cultural and public buildings, to urban parks, to high-rise towers—to create places that connect people with each other and their environment.
