Inside Outside
This architectural project plays with different elements and consists of a central cube from which other structures such as the striking sphere emerge. The art centre was conceived as an experimental space where rooms can be redesigned and used in different ways.
The interior design is determined by a colour concept: public rooms in blue, practice rooms in pink, backstage rooms in dark brown. In the "Blue Box" room, a decorative curtain made of glass fibre fabric in a special shade of blue was mounted on JOKER TRAC-DRIVE rails. Three EVEN projection screens were produced for the round theatre hall with an oval portal opening, two of them with a CUE-TRACK track guide on the top and bottom. The projection screens can thus be moved vertically and horizontally. This means that numerous variable stage openings can be realised.
