The LA Harbor College Theater, built in 1962, was renovated through a design-build process to meet acoustic requirements. To tie into the existing aesthetic, 9Wood provided custom-stained White Maple XL Channel tiles and Hemlock grilles in over 300 different factory-cut sizes. Complex geometry required 3D modeling for the shop drawings. “This was really two projects in one – the wall and ceiling – but they had to align,” added Leonard. The end result is a space that breathes new life into the building. Architect Thomas Moore summarized, “9Wood was extremely proactive in the design development stage. The detailing was well thought out and cohesive.”
