A masterpiece of Classic Revival architecture, Hill Auditorium was designed by Albert Kahn and built in 1913, expressive of the then-emerging Arts and Crafts movement in America. QUINN EVANS | ARCHITECTS served as the design and preservation architect for the $38.6 million project that transformed this historic gem at the heart of University of Michigan’s main campus into a state-of-the-art performance venue. Through careful planning and architectural-engineering collaboration, the authenticity of the original architecture was preserved while modernizing the building, making it fully accessible and comfortable for audiences and performers alike. This premier performance facility now fulfills contemporary expectations, while resonating with the unique acoustic quality that for decades has been the auditorium’s hallmark. This project was developed in association with Albert Kahn Associates, Architect of Record. |
