The new home for this renowned institution is on a hilltop overlooking the Iowa River, on the main route into Iowa City?a prominent location for the state?s premier performing arts presenter. With sweeping horizontal forms that echo the landscape and the curve of the river, the design draws from the building?s natural surroundings.
Parallel forms cantilever at the south end of the building, creating overhangs for the lobby and a second-level terrace.
