Challenge

Design a new headquarters building for this international organization, founded by President Dwight D. Eishenhower in 1956 to promote peace through personal interactions between ordinary citizens around the world.  The previous headquarters was outdated, reflected no corporate branding and split departments between multiple buildings.

Solution

Through collaboration with a local architectural firm we created a space efficient for daily employees while at the same time accommodating to large groups for training and tours.  Design features and finishes were chosen to reinforce a stately, classic and inspiring interior, building upon the presidential legacy of the People to People organization.
