York Event Theater Toronto, ON

Illumination plays an important role in the exterior and interior aspects of this elegant concept for the York renovation. It starts with the use of fiber optics, illuminated signage boxes, and a large video board to add colour, light, and movement to the theater’s existing monolithic concrete slab face. The large lobby sparkles with white stone flooring, metal wall paneling, illuminated displays filled with glass sculptures, and custom glass drop chandeliers.
