CDM Dance Studio
Client: CDM Dance & Music
Location: Mississauga, ON
Status: Design Concept
CDM Dance Studio is a six-storey community arts facility designed to celebrate the performing arts while serving as a vibrant community hub. The building accommodates expansive dance studios, individual music practice rooms, and retail space, creating a dynamic environment for learning, performance, and community engagement.
The design emphasizes a strong connection to the surrounding streetscape and the adjacent park through expansive wrap-around glazing that activates the building's public edges and maximizes natural light. Smaller, strategically placed windows punctuate the façade, offering curated glimpses into the dance studios that animate the program. These openings maintain user privacy while preserving the solid wall surfaces required for studio functionality.
