AE Interests: The overall design takes from the historic river architecture, and Spokane’s history of development along the river. The acoustical engineering is the main interest, as the wall and ceiling finishes help with sound reflection and absorption. The shape of the room also helps evenly send the sound around the room. There is also a 13 foot cantilever that extends beyond the existing structure which is cool.
