Built St. Louis
Music Building -- University of Missouri-St. Louis
On the outside, a stock Modern building is enlivened not only by its interplay of pristine rectangular forms, but by the interweaving forms of decorative blue glazed tiles (even extending to a metal access door!) Within, the main performance space features a stunning bay window of stained glass, further enhanced with mosaic tile on the outside. The building functions as the Music Department for the University; it was originally part of Marillac College, a short-lived Catholic women's school operated by the Daughters of Charity of St. Vincent dePaul, and was acquired by UMSL in 1976.
