| Kerry Hill to design Western Australia's new performing arts venue The winning concept design for Western Australia's exciting new Performing Arts Venue has been unveiled by Culture and Arts Minister Sheila McHale. An impressive concept design by Kerry Hill Architects had beaten a field of 40 designs submitted by architects from around the world. The international competition for the design of a new performing arts venue was launched in June 2005. The project, to be built in the Perth Cultural Centre on the corner of William and Roe Streets, Northbridge by late 2008, would comprise a 525-575 seat main theatre and a 200-seat studio theatre, with associated rehearsal and production spaces. It is the first large-scale, purpose built performing arts venue to be constructed in the city centre in more than 30 years. Kerry Hill Architects was established in Singapore in 1979 with offices in Singapore and Fremantle. write your comments about the article :: © 2005 Construction News :: home page |
