CASPER COLLEGE MUSIC BUILDING

In partnership with HMS Architects, MOA designed this elegant, acoustically-sound, 21st-century music facility for Casper College.

This new facility fixed along a hillside at the entrance to campus, represents a landmark facility to Casper College. The concave face of the building symbolically gestures an embrace to those that enter campus while the luminous roof monitor serves as a beacon to the surrounding community. Internally, these two architectural elements define the main lobby and concourse of the building, setting up a series of spaces bathed in natural daylight. The remaining organization of the building neatly folds the different rehearsal and performance spaces into a coherent whole. The new facility provides students with a 417-seat concert hall, instrumental rehearsal hall, percussion rehearsal suite, 65-seat choral rehearsal hall, recording suite, as well as classrooms, practice rooms, faculty studios, and support spaces.
