Sony Pictures Entertainment

Scope: Renovation

Completion: 2024

Project Manager: Lautaro Galvez, LEED AP

Project Architect: Richard Berliner, AIA, NCARD, LEED AP, ALEP

Berliner Architects renovated the Sony Dub Stage 17 as a part of Sony’s mission to upgrade all 14 of their mix stages. This professional space will be used by the industry’s top sound editors, designers, and mixers to prepare motion picture and television soundtracks. Stages have been upgraded to support Dolby atmos, Imax and other immersive formats.

Sony’s aim with the upgrade was to ensure that the mix stages and facilities are state-of-the-art but also warm and welcoming. On top of the sound stage upgrades, Berliner worked directly with the Sony team to specify warm and inviting materials, seating, and lighting.
