Inside The Glowing Theater Opposite The 9/11 Memorial | Unique Spaces | Architectural Digest

- Today Architectural Digest travels to Lower Manhattan to tour the newly completed Perelman Performing Arts Center. An integral part of the new World Trade Center site, architects Joshua Ramus and David Rockwell were eager to give the arts a new home in the area. Ramus calls the building a “mystery box” as the theater’s 3 auditoria ingeniously extend and combine to create over 62 stage-audience configurations, resulting in a different space each time you visit. But what makes this building so special is revealed at dusk when the chandeliers shine through its 5,000 marble tile exterior, causing it to glow. As this unique space finally opens its doors, the ultimate hope for Perelman is to inspire artists to create profound work-in turn inspiring the public.

i respect anybody that chooses "auditoria" as the plural form of "auditorium". this guy is no joke
Lol. I noticed, too.
In Latin it is auditoria, but in English auditories. Like one visum and many visa. That is what I learned in Europe.
That building looks like the sacred Muslim or Islamic Kaaba of Mecca and it's next to the World Trade Center Memorial.
@@earth1710awesome!
Are you implying Islam is at fault for what we shall never forget?@@earth1710
Why has this not been more in the news? Amazing space.
because its not news
@@blaze7345why is that?
@@blaze7345bullshit.
Because of the housing crisis, and the new tolls to drive into downtwon manhattan, no one wants to know that their tolls have been used to build this. (The WTC complex belongs to the Port Authority of NY meaning it is all paid by tolls.)
People only want to hear negative news about the great city of New York 🏙️
That symmetry of the marble is amazing 🤩

Lies again? Ugly Childish USD SGD
Cause it's not all naturally colored.
there is an ancient construction technique called marble revetments used in Byzantine churches.
the Rorschach Building
It's a fantastic addition to our NYC, the ability to transform is beautiful. Thanks for sharing.

@@earth1710 why do you racists compare islam to 9/11?
@@--------_ Because those who crashed those planes were in the religion of Islam you ignorant.
it's a big boring monument to indecision
Stunning! During my theatre studies in 2004, I designed a stage that was partially moving up at specific times during the play, which would have dramatically contributed to the story. That never came to fruition, due to us not having pneumatic lifts or any other means to implement the lift. This feature in Perelman Performing Arts Center made me kinda emotional. :) Amazing building and for amazing purpose. Thank you for publishing, AD!

New York City’s ability to regenerate itself is a large part of its distinction. To create such a stunningly beautiful avant-garde facility in which to showcase art and culture is by all metrics , a “tour de force”.
A thunderous standing ovation to all who made this vision a reality.
Congratulations 👏

Fascinating building, both exterior and the clever, adaptable interior. Would love to just stand there at night to admire it

The Calatrava structure in the background is a beautiful counterpoint to the cube.
Freemasons everywhere
The Beinecke Rare Books library at Yale opened in October 1963 and uses marble tiles as well, creating a nice warm light condition inside.
Exactly - Bunshaft's building was original and exciting 60 years ago - this theater is just a tired rip off

I run by this most days on my way to run the westside highway, it’s been amazing watching it progress.
To the architects, what a beautiful, inspired, and considered addition to our NYC!

Beautiful! I sense that warm glow honors the souls lost as a result of that terrible day. Well done!

A simple, but handsome structure.
Amazing design. Can’t wait to see it in person.
The best use of natural stone I've ever seen.
a dream of architecture...
Beautiful
I went to NYC and the WTC site for the first time last year and I instantly fell in love with this building. I'm so glad they made this video so I can appreciate the interior as much as I do the exterior.
I love how the marble glows!
Another incredible space. Thank you AD.
Simple yet elegant.
4:19 "So these cylinders grow out of this drum, like magic" architects are a funny bunch 🤣
Me at 4:19 😔🙄
incredibly creative and inspiring - simply amazing - kudos - a wonderful addition to NYC
What a beautiful masterpiece!
This is the opposite of The Sphere in Las Vegas ! Both are really cool in different ways
A master piece that is beautifully curated.

This building takes my breath away ❤
What an incredible documentary! I love how the building has a mysterious look and feel.
what a beautiful structure! what a great addition to the neighborhood.
Wowow! Such a beautiful space and video!
Magnificent industrial art. Well-done!
So glad I watched this. When I walk by it by day it just looks like a big marble box. Have to go at night!
I feel that the value of lighting as way-finding is a fantasy of architects.
I hope The Perelman Performing Arts Center will give tours of this beautiful and fabulous building!
It’s an amazing space inside and out!!!
This is so beautiful😍 would absolutely love to experience any kind of art and performances here.

Truly impressive. Looking forward to visiting.
Amazing and thoughtful mastery of light, space, and technology. The collaboration of true professionals is eye watering.
The most ingenious design!
Absolutely amazing!!
Great behind-the-scenes video, Thank you AD and Rex
In 10th grade, I did a presentation exam on Ground zero vs. Potsdamer Plaza (Berlin) since both had a hole in the city center and both had masterplans. I talked alot about this cubic building as well. It was in year 2017, over 6 years ago. Happy to see it's brought to life as planned ☺
So beautiful, and even more breathtaking in real life!
I’m obsessed with that marble facade
Stunning, interesting and , for some reason, it gave me the chills.

@@earth1710 yes! Its a Saturnian Cube next to the 911 memorial which is an inverted/ hollow cube. That's why it's giving off "chills".
This is a remarkable building.
Love it
gorgeous
Really beautiful. It’s reminding me a bit of the Kaaba. Not only in shape but as it stands out in contrast to its surroundings.
Such an interesting place in the heart of New York
Incredible.
The marble pattern is great
This is next level!!!! Wow!! 🤍
The design is even more impactful, after understanding the many little details and efforts put into creating this functional masterpiece.
These kind of buildings are the result of innovative architectural design and advanced construction techniques. The beauty is really obvious. 👏🏼👏🏼

This video was something so incredibly respectful, peaceful and meaningful. It put my mind at ease while watching and listening
Just Brilliant you have knocked it out of the park here .
yes yes yes for part two! ;)
Wow. The building as a piece of theater. A building that never fully reveals itself. Spectacular.
It was never fully designed 🙃
What a stunning art center. Human creativity at its best! Bravo!
Amazeballs. This place is an architectural wet dream. I'm impressed and Love the lit marble.
Beautiful architectural masterpiece! Meticulously designed, kudos to the entire team for their exceptional contribution.
Everything about this is beautifully done. Everyone involved should be proud.
Spectacular ❤
This makes me so proud to be a New Yorker!!!!
really love that conclusion in the end!
just wow, makes me want to visit NYC and that's a lot for this nature lover.
Amazing !!!
SPIRITUAL PLACE
Sensational! Beautiful!
I like box shape fit anything. I feel heaven
it beats the glass boxes that are so popular. It's a warm and beautiful box. Still a box, though.
At least it's a more fancy marble box instead of a plain ole' glass one.
Exquisite! I have to EXSPERIENCE that space.
Beautiful building and awesome design as well.
Simply stunning.....
The cube structure is unique. The build will live up to its expectations. I am overwhelmed with how you were able to build an entrance underneath the cube.
I love the idea of a forever shifting interior
Beautiful!!
What a fantastic building! Well done to everyone involved. Amazing!
Can't wait to see a production here, both for the art and the building! What a fascinating and thoughtfully designed space
Stunning! 👏
Bravo mcfee and team
so beautiful
It’s an amazing performing art space. Since this space is located in lower Manhattan, Lincoln Center has real competition now.
wow. just wow.
This place is amazing, it shows the potential of architecture and design of materials in the hands of a creative mind. My respect and congratulations to Mr Ramus. I’ll definitely visit and advise visits to.
WOW! Beautiful.
Absolutely brilliant

Absolutely gorgeous!
What a tremendous accomplishment. Beautiful.
