Ticket Booths
There are various ticket booths located in our urban context. They take different forms, and they are made from different materials. Depending on the item being sold and the surrounding buildings the design, form and structure of the booth changes. Some are mobile and transportable to variety of locations and some belong to a specific building and location. The function of them mainly is to sell tickets, host advertisements and entertain the public. There are ticket booths for parking, theatres, entertainment venues and such. Their design and symbolism is specific to their location and function. It stands out from the urban context and it's best if it is recognizable as a ticket booth.
This particular one is located on the commercialized Dundas Square and Yonge Street for a theatre venue. It sells ticket and it is a pleasant gathering spot. It marks the entrance of the theatre and it stands out, while blends in with the design of the theatre. The wood material on the outside edge of the booth and the embellishments is properly done for theatre.
