Flansburgh Architects of Boston, MA has designed the new $5.5 million Perles Family Studio at Jacob’s Pillow Dance, the home of the internationally acclaimed dance festival. The Perles Family Studio is an integral part of the Pillow’s five-year strategic plan, Vision ‘22, which launches the Pillow as a year-round campus for programs, research, and development with initiatives made possible through a deep commitment to The School at Jacob’s Pillow, artist residencies, community engagement, and educational programs. Jacob’s Pillow Dance will celebrate the opening of the Perles Family Studio at an official ribbon cutting ceremony on August 18, 2017. The Pillow’s 85th Anniversary Festival Finale, on August 26, will be the first event in the brand new space, which marks the first major on-site construction project at the Pillow since 1992. The building was constructed by Allegrone Companies of Pittsfield, MA.

Flansburgh Architects has been retained to design a new Marine Science Center overlooking the Parker River to provide a learning environment with outdoor classroom facilities in the campus woodland, collection stations, greenhouse, wet lab, boat dock, and a boardwalk in the marshes.

Flansburgh Architects is working with FPAC to develop a prototype live-work community which investigates the relationship of micro living units, live-work units, shared work spaces and commercial space.

Following its award winning Creative Arts Center at Indian Mountain School, Flansburgh Architects has begun work on a comprehensive campus master plan for the school. The plan will focus on re-orienting the campus towards Indian Mountain, particularly by visual, environmental, educational and physical connections made through buildings, landscape and programs. 

Wilbraham and Monson Academy has engaged Flansburgh Architects to evaluate the existing campus infrastructure and develop a master plan that would unify the campus, celebrate its strong sense of community and extend its reach in diplomacy and the arts.
