ENTERTAINMENT, ARTS and EDUCATION WING <br /> Elk River Minnesota <br /> by 20/20 Design, John Justad <br /> • <br /> Design Philosophy <br /> The plans present a facility that will,at least in the wing drawn,have an excellent opportunity to <br /> pay for itself over the long run and pay for its own maintenance and improvements. The traffic in <br /> and around this area will be greatly enhanced by the addition of the multi-purpose presentation <br /> area. However, the design is layed out to be multi-purpose in all areas,being accessible and <br /> reconfigureable in many ways. <br /> This overall design is of the style being used more and more around the country in <br /> public/community spaces as it has such high usage and revenue generating potential. <br /> Banquets,dinner theatre, straight theatre,music,dance,classes,touring groups,trade shows, <br /> conferences,conventions and seminars,all of these multi-purpose room activities are enhanced <br /> with the proximity of the adjoining arts/entertainment activities. <br /> • <br /> A busy office was placed near the gallery for security and convenience of volunteers in gallery. <br /> The entire wing transitions from the quietest to the loudest activities with studio,lecture, <br /> auditorium,stage, multi-use,then shops and docks. <br /> In the perspective sketch,the fly loft from the exterior is lit and decorated to serve as high-profile <br /> • ad space for the center and the main entrance lands the guest in the middle of the overall center. <br /> The design plans can be set in either a hill (less expensive)or flat site. <br /> Cost <br /> The costs for the space as drawn should be about$150 per square foot,based on similar facilities <br /> studied for this design and the work done by Jeff Garetz of the Parliament Company that was also <br /> used in the design process. This is my best realistic budget figure for a somewhat basic structure <br /> and decoration as drawn, but including the costs for the specialty theatre and multi-purpose <br /> equipment. <br /> Submitted by, <br /> C_. <br /> ohn .ustad <br /> Designer <br /> 20/20 Design, John Justad, HC 74 Box 469B, Hackensack, MN 56452(218)682-2818 <br /> • <br /> __-- <br /> --- <br />
