Company People Projects News Publications Contact us Ravenscroft Scottsdale, Arizona, USA Jazz venues are known for their intimacy and liveliness, and the music facilities at Ravenscroft are no different. Our client wanted to create a welcoming and exciting environment for musical performances, so we helped adapt an existing warehouse and office building to create a 30,000 square foot music center with a 200-seat recital hall at its core. The hall’s intimacy is enhanced by excellent sightlines, electro acoustics, and 360-degree projection capabilities to create a truly immersive and multi-sensory music experience. The center also includes a jazz lounge, a recording studio, offices, and a showroom for Ravenscroft’s handcrafted pianos.

Company People Projects News Publications Contact us Loomis Chaffee School, Nichols Center for Theater and Dance Windsor, Connecticut, USA The performing arts are a big deal at this prestigious boarding school. Their theatre program includes instruction in acting for stage and camera, technical theatre, playwriting, and directing. And their dance program teaches classes in ballet, jazz, contemporary, tap, and hip-hop, as well as choreography and composition. So, the school needed modern spaces to fit their varied and growing needs. The school’s existing Norris Ely Orchard Theater, affectionately known as “The Neo,” is being enlarged to provide seating for 200 people. We’re also expanding the main stage, adding an orchestra pit, and updating the performance equipment to the latest technology. The newly renovated theatre will host three major performances each year, including an annual musical, which brings together students from the theatre, dance, and music programs. The project also includes an all-new dance studio with sprung floors and mirrored walls and a flexible 60-seat studio theatre for rehearsals, teaching, and some smaller productions through the year. In addition, the facility will include new dressing rooms, a green room, and a scene and costume shop. Owner Loomis Chaffee School Architect Robert A. M.
