Touring PPG Paints Arena was an amazing experience. This building was built with a lot in mind, even the littlest details have meaning. The ceiling, the seats and the signs in the arena.
Below is a photo that shows the ceiling of the arena. The architect wanted this arena to be custom to Pittsburgh. So the architects decided to leave the ceiling unfinished because of the industrial past in Pittsburgh.
Below is a picture of the seats in the arena. The seats of the arena are colored with black and gold because Pittsburgh is one of the only cities with the sports teams having the same colors.
To the left is a picture of the sign for the women’s bathroom. At PPG Paints Arena the signs all have a theme. The main brown area represents the steel, the 3 lines represent the 3 rivers in Pittsburgh, and lastly the glass behind it all represents the ice with skate marks.
