路易斯藝術中心位于普林斯頓大學校園南端，毗鄰麥卡特劇院中心。路易斯藝術中心大幅擴展表演、排練和教學空間，通過新的、最先進的設施將普林斯頓大學的藝術水平推向一個更高的高度。該綜合體創(chuàng)造了一個新的校園入口，塑造校園空間的同時，使其可穿越性和活躍度最大化。

路易斯中心由斯蒂芬?霍爾事務所與 BNIM 事務所合作設計，集合了舞蹈廳、劇院、音樂廳、工作室，以及音樂學院的教學和研究設施的增建。這個建筑群包括華萊士舞蹈館和劇院，由赫爾利畫廊、行政辦公室和其他工作室組成的藝術塔，以及新的音樂大樓這三部分。三棟建筑被整合在地下大廳——一個8 000平方英尺（約743平方米）的室內公共空間中，可以進行多樣的藝術活動。大廳之上是一個有倒影池的室外廣場。自然光會透過這個水池映射到地下大廳中。

為了激發(fā)好奇心和鼓勵交往行為，新的藝術廣場弱化了對舞蹈、戲劇練習空間和管弦樂排練空間的視線。這個校園的門戶空間是一個迎人的開敞空間，旨在將當?shù)厣鐓^(qū)與大學聯(lián)系起來。

華萊士舞蹈大樓和劇院是根據(jù)“物中物”的理念發(fā)展而來。黑盒子劇場采用了鋼結構，而舞蹈劇院則是由泡沫鋁、白洗木和木板鋪裝的混凝土建筑。一個“舞動的樓梯”連接各層。

藝術塔由“嵌入式”概念發(fā)展而來，它的大理石塔造型與普林斯頓歷史悠久的布萊爾拱門（Blair Arch）的比例相近。

新音樂大樓的概念則是“懸掛”，在大型的管弦樂隊排練室上部，各間練習室被懸掛在鋼梁上。每個獨立的、木質墻面的房間相互隔離，保證了聲學共振的品質。三座建筑的混凝土結構材料來自意大利萊切市2 100萬年前的萊切石。

這座新藝術中心以已故的彼得?B?路易斯（Peter ?B?Lewis）的名字命名，在某種程度上建筑的建成要歸功于他在2006年組織普林斯頓1955屆及以前的大學董事捐贈1.01億美元（約6.7億人民幣），作為禮物獻給普林斯頓大學。

The new Lewis Arts complex on the south edge of campus, adjacent to McCarter Theatre Center, takes the arts at Princeton University to even greater heights by significantly expanding the performance, rehearsal and teaching spaces for the arts in new, state-of-the-art facilities.The complex creates a new campus gateway, shaping campus space while maximizing porosity and movement.

The arts complex, designed by Steven Holl Architects in partnership with BNIM, brings together the Lewis Center for the Arts’ Programs in Dance, Theater, Music Theater, and the Princeton Atelier,and the Department of Music’s expansion of its instructional and research facilities in the New Music Building. The complex comprises the Wallace Dance Building and Theater; the Arts Tower, which includes the Hurley Gallery, administrative offices and additional studios; and the New Music Building.The three buildings are integrated below ground in a Forum, an 8,000 square-foot open indoor gathering space that serves the various arts venues in the complex. Above the Forum is an outdoor plaza with a reflecting pool. Skylights in the pool filter natural light into the Forum below.

Encouraging curiosity and interaction, the new arts plaza has overlook views into the dance and theater practice spaces and the orchestral rehearsal space. As an open public invitation, this gateway space aims to connect the local community to the University.

The Wallace Dance Building and Theater is developed according to the idea of a “thing within a thing.” The black-box theatre is composed of steel, while the dance theaters are foamed aluminum,white washed wood and board formed concrete. A “dancing stair” connects all levels.

The Arts Tower is developed with an “embedded” concept, its stone tower connecting to the proportions of Princeton’s historic Blair Arch.

The New Music Building is developed according to an idea of “suspension.” Above the large orchestral rehearsal room individual practice rooms are suspended on steel rods. Acoustically separate, these individual wooden chambers have a resonant quality. The concrete structure of all three buildings is faced in thick 21-million-year-old Lecce Stone quarried in Lecce, Italy.

The new arts complex is named for and was made possible in part through a $101 million gift to the University made in 2006 by the late Peter B. Lewis, Princeton Class of 1955 and former University trustee.
