| The
Technology Production Center is located in a mall, The Village at Indian
Hill, that Pomona USD is converting is a joint use facility of education
and retail. It is part of the District’s model of an effective,
multi-level education community, serving the larger audience. The Center
consists of 4 spaces: a transitional entry zone; a wireless, interactive
work area; and a seminar/training lab that is divisible. The design
incorporates a well scaled spaces, framed by the central space’s
curved ceiling, wood paneled walls and counters and uses soft lighting
to provide physiological and psychological comfort. Introduction of
curves, lines, oval and their suggestion of high tech images bring a
dynamic to the spaces, but does not reinforce a technologically forbidding
atmosphere. The facility is a balanced and graceful space rather than
a strong, but fast fading image amid the retail environment. |
