This unique project involves the design on a state-of-the art educational, leaning, and conferencing center that will be used jointly by Wachovia Corporation and Wake Forest University’s graduate MBA programs in Charlotte, NC.

Workplace Strategies has teamed with Jenkins Peer Architects to develop an innovative facility that supports both client’s educational missions through a wide variety of flexible space concepts, advanced technologies, and a host of amenities that encourage social interaction and collaboration.

The facility includes two 80-seat tiered classroom spaces that include broadcast quality video conference and distance learning. Four flat classroom spaces can instantly convert to a large auditorium through the use of automated wall technologies.

Social gathering spaces offer informal meeting environ- ments and verandahs overlooking the adjacent cultural campus and Tryon Street. A large café and food service area is central to the conference spaces.

Projected completion in Fall 2009.
