... And now for a practical consideration of the problem. Here is a small outdoor theater for which I am to furnish a convenient entrance and exit. The group of people that will assemble here will be small. For this reason I have created by curve volumes, intimacy and unformality. By horizontal lines I have created a mood of rest and seriousness. There will be no need for a group to rush either into or out of this area -- this I have said with curved stairways. In formulating my idea I first built to scale a five foot bank with a ten foot slope as actually exists. Into this I sculptured or cut the volumes to coincide with the functions I have stated. The volumes illustrated emerged. |
