Constellation Center Performance Modes

Constellation Center is a very research-intensive project aspiring to be one of the world’s finest performing arts centers. The research staff studies all periods of music, from Byzantine Chant to contemporary music such as rock & roll and jazz. To help translate this research into architecture, map-lab works closely with the Constellation Center research team to develop 3-dimensional computer models to stimulate thought and conversation related to the spatial requirements for a wide variety of performance types. To date, more than 100 models have been created, aiding the client team to make design decisions as the project begins to take shape. These studies are incorporated into the four main halls of ConstellationCenter: the Great Hall, Odeon, Jewel Box, and Music Salon.

Constellation Center Project Management

map-lab was selected at the beginning of 2007 as project managers for what will be one of the world’s finest performing arts centers. Our day to day task management efforts include the following comprehensive efforts; we conducted an international search for an architect, we manage project team acoustic and venue consultants and their respective research tasks, we have selected a permitting consultant and have begun the process of outlining all necessary permits that will be required for our project, and we have done comprehensive soil studies to gain an understanding of what will be required to remediate this site. In addition to the project related work, map-lab assists project development and fund-raising efforts as necessary.
