Newswise — BOWLING GREEN, O.—In a landscape of brick, the new Wolfe Center for the Arts at Bowling Green State University draws the eye with its clean lines, steely hue and abundance of concrete and metal. After more than two years of construction, the collaborative arts space is ready to welcome students, faculty, staff and the community.
Designed by the international architectural firm SNØHETTA, with offices in Oslo, Norway, and New York City, the Wolfe Center features welcoming public areas as well as functional work areas with plenty of natural light.
The center will be the first project SNØHETTA will complete in the United States, before its 9/11 museum in New York City opens in 2012.
