Working closely with architects Blight Rayner and Snøhetta on a highly constrained site, our role has been to ensure that ambitious artistic and operational goals are realised within tight spatial and technical limits. Our scope includes seating and sightlines, a state of the art power flying system, and a highly adaptable orchestra pit capable of supporting everything from small contemporary ensembles to full opera orchestras. Fully integrated AV systems support live performance, broadcast, and independent streaming, enabling the venue to connect with audiences across Queensland and beyond.
Schuler Shook’s specialist lighting scope includes architectural and feature lighting for foyers, performance venues, exterior façades, and integrated public artworks. Carefully coordinated with the architecture, the lighting enhances spatial character, supports wayfinding and atmosphere, and reinforces the identity of a compact yet intimate auditorium, where every design decision contributes to a strong connection between performers and audience.
