Despite the Roundhouse’s historic importance, by 2006 the shuttered building needed reimagining as a performance venue and a creative center for young people. We designed the equipment in the auditorium to be discrete, retaining the original ambiance of the space, yet flexible enough to suit a variety of performance types and technical needs.
