Alley Arts and Conference Centre
The Alley Arts and Conference Centre is a civic building for Strabane and a focal point for performing arts in the region. A collaboration between ourselves and Alan Jones Architects, the Centre stands out as a unique and distinctive presence in the Northern Irish town, thanks to its fascia graphics.
Its foyer, seen through the glazed frontage, is part of the street scene and fronts a 265-seat auditorium and café/restaurant. The theatre is technically innovative, with the multi-purpose auditorium allowing conference uses and employing a low volume and velocity air displacement system. On completion, the Centre won a Royal Society of Ulster Architects Design Award.
