Studio VII · Fall 2024 · Atlanta, Georgia, US
A design that engages both the SCAD students and faculty as well as the Midtown Atlanta community by creating an internal experience that provides a stage for learning in the arts, which moves outwards with its blend of public and private spaces. The monumental walls act as a strong reference from entrance to exit as a way of differentiating interior spaces while gathering people into the communal spaces.
