The facilities' architects designed sculptural furniture that is both functional and comfortable, and throughout the buildings, art is incorporated in unexpected places. An intricately detailed watercolor by artist Scott Teplin sits under the glass top of a desk near the ground floor entrance, and sculptures by Kate Malone and Kathy Butterly sit atop the spiraling information desks. Under a glass tabletop on the main level, artist Polly Apfelbaum’s cross-sections of fallen branches create a natural mosaic.
