I chose this building for its eye-catching design in photographs. This building is unlike any others that I have seen. The dramatic creativity and uniqueness of this building is to expected because it is the building for creative and performing arts at the University of Chicago. Completed in 2012, this building stands 11 stories high and is filled with rehearsal spaces, studios, and classrooms. This building shows their style are partners very well by, again, using natural materials like glass, wood, and limestone to create a very timeless space for all to enjoy the beauty. Aside from the main 11 story building, there are smaller building which lines the exterior of one side of the main structure. These smaller buildings are built from the same natural materials but are topped with skylights to flood the spaces with natural light. The spaces for the different arts that take place in this building were very well thought out. Some spaces are filled with light hues and flooded with natural light, while others are darker with some natural light to fit the artistic medium of the space. I don’t see the beauty or intrigue of this building fading anytime soon.
