Tod Williams and Billie Tsien Architects' highly anticipated multidisciplinary arts centre has opened at the Academy of Chicago in Illinois. Serving every bit a landmark on the south end of campus, the 184,000 foursquare foot Reva and David Logan Eye for the Arts is the new dwelling to UChicago'southward bookish and extracurricular programs in cinema and media studies, creative writing, music, theater and performance studies, and the visual arts.

Inspired by the "flat prairies of the Midwest and the not bad towers of Chicago", the new arts hub is comprised of a calorie-free-filled glass and stone tower and a iii-story "podium" with a saw-tooth roof. The 170-foot tower houses a operation penthouse, screening room, rooftop deck, classrooms, rehearsal rooms, and functioning labs, while the podium features studio infinite, music practice rooms, workshops, a café, a digital media center, production and editing labs, two theaters, and a 474-seat performance hall.

The Academy is pursuing LEED Silver Certification for the Logan Center, equally the design features regionally sourced materials, a "green roof," and solar panels.

Tod Williams and Billie Tsien: "The idea of the long, low, skylit building of studios and theaters, and the tower of the arts came from imagining the flat prairies of the Midwest and the groovy towers of Chicago. The quiet depression "plains" edifice will provide 3 floors of beautifully lit studios, a gallery, music practice rooms and theaters that are spatial surprises. The presence of the tower on the s side of the Midway announces a new home for the creative life of students and faculty and a public venue for residents of the city."

"Nosotros take put cinema, dance, performance, ensemble spaces of music, and classrooms on different floors and connected these programs with generous elevators and dramatic stairways. Details such equally custom made tiles and felt paneled walls adjure to the importance of the creative act. Moving from floor to flooring, students, kinesthesia, and residents of Chicago will observe communal places to assemble and undercover places to be lonely."

"The Logan Center is made to exist explored and discovered over time. In doing and then this building will be for all who utilize the Logan Center a place where arts overlap and friendships are formed and the exhilarating and the unimagined happen."
