A TIMELINE OF JONES HALL

Concept, design and construction of permanent exhibits and signage for Jones Hall. A timeline of the hall set as an abstracted sheet music featuring it’s construction as the first large performance space in Houston, to it’s home of the Houston Symphony and events and programs through Society of the Performing Arts.

The materials (teak, brass and brushed aluminum) and the design reflects and honors the mood and architecture of this spectacular performance hall which opened in 1966.
