Landscape and Community: Buddy Holly Hall, Lubbock, Texas

New cultural and science center Buddy Holly Hall grew out of the community needs inspired by the physical and cultural milieu of Lubbock, a city in Texas. The name of the building serves as a tribute to one of the most famous Lubbock native – Rock’n’Roll pioneer Buddy Holly. Short excursion of the newly executed building by the Canadian architect Diamond Schmitt captures the author’s linking of function, spirit and acoustics in light and materiality of West Texas.
