GEORGIA TREND – Perhaps the biggest feather in the cap of Fayette County is Trilith, a walkable community comprised of residences, retail, restaurants and a film studio. Its latest project is a live entertainment complex, Trilith LIVE, which is expected to open later this year. It’ll include a 1,800-seat auditorium, two live audience television stages, an eight-screen movie theater and space for offices. Trilith already has 32 soundstages, including one public facing one where live shows like Family Feud are filmed. And a virtual production volume (LED screens used to create photorealistic digital environments for shooting) known as Prysm Stage, opened in early 2022. Even before construction started on the latest complex, Trilith was already the largest production campus in Georgia.
Described as a European-style village, the master-planned community contains hundreds of single-family homes and multifamily lots. The neighborhood has won several awards since 2020, including three in 2023 from the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB), for its high-quality innovation and design.
