D. Concept
The exterior of the building will be art deco in style and the theater and restaurant will be a mix between art deco and contemporary in design. I want the façade to be representative of the art deco style that the downtown development district is portraying to the rest of the downtown area. The theater and restaurant on the other hand will create warm intimate spaces for the guests.

E. Summary Statement
The theater and restaurant will work together to help Mr. Johnson’s dream of doing his part to help revitalize the downtown area. Both the movie theater and the restaurant will create warm intimate spaces by incorporating color and lighting into the design. The W.T. Grant building will be kept intact to incorporate historical preservation, and more research will be done to make sure the building looks as it once did when it was first built. Over the next few months more research will be done on equipment, codes, and cost estimates. Also, the overall design of the building will be concluded at the end of April of 2006.
