Project Description
Transcendent Stair Treads
UNIVERSITY OF TENNESSEE
Transcendent Stair Treads. Barber McMurry’s design challenge was to “Design a replacement School of Music to bring the program into the 21st century.”
As music fills the lofty hallways, natural light floods the stairwells. Glass stair treads with an opacity layer allows light to transcend through each floor, paralleling the thoughtfully chosen lyrical detailing throughout the rest of the building.
