Tempe Center for the Arts
Tempe, AZ
Project Description
The Tempe Center for the Arts houses a 600-seat proscenium theater with state-of-the-art stage areas and equipment, a 200-seat studio theater, 3,500sf of gallery exhibition space, and a finely appointed multi-purpose room. It provides performance space for several Tempe organizations. The architecture left building systems and structure exposed, which in turn required the highest level of execution and planning during construction. The project features several high-end architectural concrete components such as scalloped walls, battered/radius walls, and a cast-in-place dome in the main theater. Seventeen acres of landscape/hardscape features include a reflecting pool, pedestrian paths, and a park that is located next to a riparian area on the southwest shore of the Tempe Town Lake adjacent to a downstream dam.
