Performance architecture is not just an empty tagline, but the description of a full-bodied design solution through the relationship shared by form and function. Form is the source that provides an impression - of the space, of the performance, or of the experience. Function is the resource - for the space that becomes a classroom, an office, a conference room, a practice room or studio, and the performance hall. This thesis is a Center for the Performing Arts, and as a building that provides for a variety of needs, it responds by embodying a diverse range of design solutions for each space within.
