Georgia Tech - Global Learning Center Atrium Refresh
Project Origin
The Atrium remodeling project started in 2023. The original design was completed in 2005 so the technology of the monitors and the sound boarding around the walls was outdated for quality, color and functionality. Our vision for the project was to amplify the voice of global learning at Georgia Tech.
Challenges
The space surrounds an interactive classroom. The wall material needed to be soundproof as well as aesthetically on brand. Installing a backlit sign required working across teams to move a power outlet, and position the sign for optimal sizing within the space. Lastly, our team needed to coordinate across different vendors for the wall panels, the material covering the panels and the backlit sign.

Selecting the panel material involved two rounds, followed by three rounds of color testing. For the back lit sign we reviewed several different metal and acrylic samples. We then created two different prototypes for size and position.
