Red Hook Ferry Terminal and Theater (2022)

To design for the public is to design with a certain level of restraint. In combining two disparate programs, the constant shift and bustle of the ferry passengers with the often static programming of the theater, the building simply frames the random and rich collisions between theater-goers and commuters. As such the architecture is reduced to a series of structural solutions, shelves of corrugate resting on thin pilons driven into the bedrock, shear supported by a network of galvanized steel wire.
