This fire damaged building was built in 1924 as a gymnasium. TSKP STUDIO converted it to a dance barn for Miss Porter's School. By removing the hung ceiling, the simple steel trusses of the roof were revealed. To the roof, we added four skylights. The existing wood floor were refinished and resurfaced the walls with wood panels. The natural light from the skylights and windows picks up the warmth of the wood floors and walls, creating a beautiful and elegant space in which to rehearse and perform.
