MAGIC Spell Studios incorporates fun into building design

RIT’s MAGIC Spell Studios building is filled with references to film and animation, games and pop culture. Here are a few examples: Exterior: Orange terracotta panels are meant to appear as an abstract digital pixilation. Exterior canopy column angles are inspired by ramps from the original Donkey Kong video game. Adjacent to the date stone, a subtle pattern in the brick can be found that resembles the game Breakout. ‘STAGE 1’ sign, lighting, entry door and stairs are designed to resemble the ‘back lot’ of a Hollywood film studio.
