The Caddo Common Pavilion

Address:  869 Texas Ave
Artist:  Mike McSwain

The Caddo Common Pavilion comprises two wings joined by a set of soaring encircling structures. “They are kind of yin and yang shape, a thick element and a thin element. That has a lot of meaning and symbolism to it, the yin and yang, the two parts coming together making a whole,” says architect Mike McSwain.

“Most noticeable and recognizable of the whole thing is the stark blackand-white treatment of the exterior.  It manifests through 100 percent of the project. “That lack of color meant the real color was going to be the performers on that stage.”
