Introducing 
Studio B1

Some places shape how a profession evolves.

One of those places is a classroom in the basement of the University Theatre at the Yale School of Drama.

It was known simply as B1.

For decades, it served as a working laboratory for theater design. Students studied how performance spaces function, worked through drawings and technical problems, and learned from George Izenour, widely regarded as the father of modern theater consulting.

That lineage of thinking about performance spaces as integrated systems continues in Studio B1.

Founded by Todd Berling, Studio B1 brings together theater planning, acoustics, and AV design into a single coordinated discipline. The studio works closely with owners, architects, and design teams from early programming through commissioning to ensure theaters function as intended in real use.

Studio B1 will make its public debut at USITT26.

Performance Spaces Designed as Systems

Space, sound, light, and technology working as one.

We design integrated environments for theaters and live experiences. From concept through commissioning, every system is aligned to how the space performs in real use.

Where Projects Begin

Every performance environment starts with a conversation.
