Kansas City, Missouri. An event space in the Crossroads Arts District.
Pendulum served as architect and interior design firm for the conversion of a former medical equipment production facility into a commercial event space.
The redevelopment added the support spaces an event business actually bills for: a catering kitchen without commercial cooking equipment, a main bar on the assembly level, restrooms supporting the assembly space, bridal and grooms suites on the lower level, a secondary bar, general storage, a utility room, coat room and bar storage.
An industrial shell already has the span and the ceiling height. What it lacks is the service infrastructure that lets a venue run two events in a weekend, and that is where the budget went.
