1 A 5,000 sq.ft. renovation to house the Rotman School of Business Martin Prosperity Institute within the MaRS Centre (and under the cupola of the former Toronto General Hospital) A new way of thinking at an old institution prompted us to develop a series of new names for the spaces that would insert themselves within the existing brick walls: thebusiness- Centre, thelobby, thelibrary, thecafe, theconferenceroom and thebigroom. A restrained palette of sustainable materials set the stage for a more colorful collection of furniture by Canadian and Great Lakes designers.

18 THE CUPOLA ALTHOUGH IT WAS NOT ACCESSIBLE VIA THE INSTITUTE, THERE WAS A DESIRE TO MAKE SOME USE OF THE CUPOLA. CONSTRUCTING ACCESS SEEMED A POOR USE OF RESOURCES WITH LITTLE BENEFIT. WE PROPOSED THE CUPOLA BE INTERNALLY ILLUMINATED (AT A COST OF $12 ANNUALLY) AS A BEACON FOR THE ENTIRE MARS CENTRE AND THAT 20 HOLE BE PUNCHED THROUGH THE CONCRETE CEILING IN THE LIBRARY, CAPTURING THE IMAGINATION OF RESEARCHERS IN THE PROCESS.
