Challenge
KDHX is a cornerstone of the St. Louis arts scene, serving up independent music since 1987. We knew its new home in the heart of the Grand Center Arts District needed to reflect its mission: “to promote civic and cultural participation by providing the tools, technology and training vital to informed, creative expression.”
Solution
We designed and constructed the new facility to provide the infrastructure the community needs, including a flexible space to accommodate musicians, speakers and small theater performances for a 100-person audience. The facility also houses the 88.1 FM studios, as well as a live performance studio. The new space features a café and live venue space on the first floor, both open to the public and encouraging participation from the surrounding community.
