The League of Historic American Theatres (LHAT) 47th annual conference takes place from July 16–19 in Kansas City, MO. We are looking forward to meeting familiar and new historic theatre professionals and sharing our expertise in theater restoration and renovation.
Don’t miss the Monday morning Tools & Techniques session, It’s What Inside that Counts, where Jeff Greene and Amy Mladjen, Partner and Interior Designer at Mills + Schnoering Architects, will talk about the intricacies of interior renovations and space design.
Topics include paint analysis and plaster investigation; typical historic paint finish and substrate challenges; the importance of mock-ups; integration of paint schemes with other finishes such as seating, carpets, and draperies; the importance of lighting; and the subtle but important difference between “color” and “value” and their impact on your paint scheme. Among other examples, Amy and Jeff’s joint renovation of the Allentown Civic Theatre will be used as a case study to show how to effectively maximize and beautify a space.
Be sure to get in touch with Jeff Greene and Terry Vanderwell to scheduling a meeting during your trip to Kansas City.
