Text Description provided by architect.
Located on Washington Circle just a few blocks from the White House, this signature new building will house some of the nation’s best known leaders from across the public and private health policy sectors.
It will provide a critical forum for experts to address today’s most pressing global health challenges.
Eschewing the usual separation between offices and classrooms, the project combines these functions on each floor of the building around a central skylit atrium to deliberately promote interaction between faculty, staff and students.
In another departure from conventional practice, informal student study and meeting areas are afforded pride of place by occupying a dramatic, glass-enclosed atrium overlooking Washington Circle.
