Vic Huber Photography commissioned Carlile/Coatsworth/Shankweiler Architects to integrate a bowed expanse of frosted glass in its studio in Irvine, CA. The design, which was based on the theme of spatiality and functional relationship, allowed natural light to enter the studio. It also featured a striking facade, mezzanine galleries, high-ceilings, glass doors, ramp curves, and open squares that served as a decorative motif.
