Window to Wednesnbury
This‘window to Wednesbury’ creates a sense of change in territory affecting the emotions of visitors walking from a naturally lit lobby to a fully controlled artificial lighting environment in the main theatre. The idea of the dramatic window opening is inspired by precedent University Luigi Bocconi, situated in Milan designed by Dublin based practice Grafton Architects. As this 2.4 x 5m window is oriented towards the west, only receives direct sunlight during evening hours which charges the emotions of visitors before their full dramatic experience in the main theatre. Thus, the architecture of the building is performing itself through its amalgamation with daylighting.
