The necessity of open windows during performances would allow dust and traffic noise to enter the auditorium, contributing to audience discomfort. Renovation and restoration of the building interior challenged Notkin Hawaii Inc. to integrate an "invisible" air conditioning system into the new building features. Imaginative use of air supply and return ducts transformed functional components into handsome design elements.
