Amadeus Centre 1997

The Amadeus Centre features about 45 square feet of Applique glass used in the interior and exterior doors and fanlights. It was designed to update and enliven the interior of a Neo-Classical Victorian building that was formerly a Wesh Presbyterian Church. The centre is now used by a multi-faith spiritual organization whose symbol is used in the central fanlights. The building is a popular venue for meetings. wedding receptions and music rehearsals. The design uses the colour scheme of the Subud symbol and creates a formal but playful geometric pattern that makes use of both symmetry and asymmetry.

The interior doors have more textured glass to give light to the halls but also privacy - the mosiac border motif is taken from the mosiac on the entrance foyer floor that is one of the building's original features.
