- Summary:
- Adrian Smith + Gordon Gill Architecture's 'Performance + Assembly: The Experience of Space' covers a range of performance and assembly spaces designed by AS+GG from central spaces in the world's largest expositions to small, flexible high-technology theatres to expressive and functional auditoriums. The book of global cultural work includes building designs from Chicago to Istanbul, Astana to Dubai and features both photography of built spaces and unbuilt ideas. In this book Adrian Smith + Gordon Gill Architecture reviews projects to answer questions that relate to how buildings can be used to enhance the experiences of the users beyond set programmatic requirements by asking questions like: How can architecture and design help advance the technologies, the operations, the program, and the way buildings perform? At a more sensorial and experiential level, the book explores how architecture can speak to the soul to create a place in between the art and the audience.
