We've been so focused on the integrity of the studios and control rooms, let's not forget that a functioning studio still needs offices, a place to eat (always a critical issue with musicians, engineers, producers and directors), and essential spaces like, oh...restrooms. With most of the big work complete, framing began this week on all the "common areas".
As you enter the lobby, there's a window looking into to the administrative office on your right.
Look straight ahead, and you see down the long hallway toward Studios 1 and 2, Control Rooms A and B, as well as the breakroom and restrooms.
Look just slightly to the right and there's an angled wall which will hold a beautiful glass shelf display case designed by Architect Brian Gaddis. (I'll share photos when it's complete. Brian's design is REALLY cool.)
Down this short hallway is the entrance to Studio 1. Restrooms are on the right.
And if you turn right from the lobby, you see Studio 3 at the end of the hall. Offices are to the right, and Control Room C to the left.
While the framing crew was at it, work was also underway applying additional sound isolation layers to the walls inside studios and control rooms; completion of HVAC ductwork overhead; and the running of electrical conduit.
It was pretty exciting being able to walk through the actual layout of the entire facility. I had to drag myself away. But another deadline loomed and there was music to be written. During the short drive back to our current studio, all I could think about is how great it's going to be working every day in those fabulous new rooms!
Until next time...
