Television House
Television House is a three-storey building located immediately south of the Admin. Building and connected to the latter on all three floors in the entrance hall and a second connection on the first floor by means of a bridge at the western end of the buildings.
This building, costing approximate- ly M$41⁄2 million (excluding television equipment), accommodates all the production, technical and film facili- ties.
The accommodation includes: Four production studies, one 85ft. x 55ft., two 65ft. x 35ft., and one 25ft. x 20ft.; scenery areas and storage; six rehearsal halls; control rooms totalling 13,130 sq. ft.; performers rooms (4,470 sq.ft.): design area on the ground floor (5,135 sq.ft.); film ser- vices rooms; archives and storage on the lower ground floor; dubbing studios; and a 45-seat multi-purpose theatre.
The building is designed in a linear pattern with the various functions and facilities that serve the studios running parallel to each other in a north-south direction so as to permit expansion of all facilities simultaneously in an east- west direction. The juxtaposition of various functions and facilities has been determined according to their relationship to the studios in order to facilitate a co-ordinated production of programmes that culminates with the live show in the studios.
In order to separate the various forms of traffic to and from the studios, ancillary facilities are distri- buted on opposite sides of the studios
