Helene B. Roberson Dance Studio

The sprungwood floor of the 2,609-square foot Dance Studio is encircled by a ring of sand-blasted windows 15 feet above the floor, while a band of clear windows at the floor level looks out onto the densely textured vegetation and sentient landscape. The dancer, moving in the zone between these two windows, hovers between earth and sky. The walls are birch plywood, and an air return acts as a sculptural element, but functions as a bench. There are no windows on the areas adjacent to public walkways to ensure dancer's privacy. However, the magnificent sliding doors lead to a semi-private deck and create a breathtaking connection to the environment.
