The SCW9000 acoustic curtain wall for the University of Tennessee's music center is more than a visual portal to the outside; it provides the luxury of quiet for the creativity inside.
Inside the center houses a recital hall, music library, band room and office suite, computer labs, a recording studio, 40 performance studios/offices, and a variety of technology-enhanced practice and rehearsal rooms.
