- 6. Challenge/Project Objective Create a viable educational laboratory, with a theater and concert hall, which establish the Idyllwild Arts Academy as the nations preeminent arts preparatory school; and Provide a creative environment in which the next generation of musical and dramatic practitioners can hone their craft, while also providing for a range of artistic experiences for diverse audiences within both the school and community at large.
- 7. Concept: A Sustainable Approach to Design "Sustainability is an economic state where the demands placed upon the environment by people and commerce can be met without reducing the capacity of the environment to provide for future generations. Leave the world better than you found it Take no more than you need Try not to harm life or the environment Make amends if you do source: www.sustainability.ca
- 8. A Green or Sustainable Approach to Design Team Philosophy: Functionality Devise an architectural program serving students and faculty as well as community members. Use high quality materials to enhance indoor & out-door experiences. Create a repertoire of public spaces. Reinforce pedestrian circulation. Maximize efficiency.
- 9. Sustainable Design Creating Community Through Design Team Philosophy: Integrate Systems Utilize green or sustainable systems to meet program requirements. Balance project solutions into an integrated and seamless whole. Engineer solutions to specific site and climatic challenges. Enhance accessibility pursuant to the Americans with Disabilities Act Control variables to ensure success: schedule, budget and quality.
