The Daile Theater is a beloved cultural destination and an outstanding example of modernist architecture. The landscaping principles and materials characteristic of theater architecture and the spirit of modernism have been preserved in the square, and a new strategy of movement has been created, making the square accessible to everyone. New trees were planted and sustainable rainwater management solutions were used. Besides new elements and materials, some of the dismantled materials were reused in the square. New signage and advertising areas were realized for wider recognition of theater.
