Ballet just got even more beautiful, courtesy of the new campus for Canada's National Ballet School. Designed by KPMB in Toronto, the architecture blends tradition with a fresh new design.
The school centers on Northfield, a Georgian-style house built in 1856. Flanking the house, two delicately-detailed glass-and-steel structures rise to five stories, paying homage to their venerable brick neighbor, while also establishing a stylistic contrast.
Inside, the three-story atrium -- the symbolic heart of the campus -- offers and evocative design. One example: the clever remix of a tried-and-true ceiling system from Hunter Douglas Contract.
This engaging application of suspended linear metal ceilings could be said to add rhythm to the space.
