Vivistop is a non-profit engaged in the community through arts education and mentorships for local kids. As Vivistop’s first location in the US this facility is a much-needed creative center in the neighborhood hosting a maker-space, recording studio, film corner, dance studio, kitchen and flexible workspace. A soundproof recording studio is tucked inside a box featured prominently in the space, inspired by early 80’s boomboxes with a small mezzanine and viewing platform above. The artist duo Wooden Wave collaborated with Vivistop to paint out the box. The acoustic ceiling and wall panel array offer sound diffusion, surface absorption and reflection for the multiple uses in the space.
