Wolf D Prix, the architect of a new high school for the arts being built in downtown Los Angeles, USA, will be using stainless steel in his design. The USD 234 million project includes a truncated-cone library building with a tower topping a 957 seat theater, all clad in softly reflective stainless steel. A roller coaster of a giant “9” that spirals around the tower will also be made in perforated steel. The school is scheduled for completion this year and will be opening in September 2009.
