Based in Arlington, Virginia, the Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) is the preeminent provider of public programming in the United States, with over 150 member stations across all 50 states and territories.
Working with OTJ Architects, we conceptualized and developed architecturally integrated graphics within the lobby to showcase the full reach and breadth of public broadcasting in the U.S. Multiple recognition areas were designed to honor the PBS member stations, foundation donors, and the foundation board.
Multiple recognition areas throughout the space utilize a range of fabrication methods and materials coordinated to match the architectural finishes. Entire wall layouts can be rearranged as the recognition expands and changes in the future.
The United States map is rendered in blue lacquered wood with a customized CNC grid pattern that allows the more than 150 member stations to be accurately plotted across the 10 ft wide map.
A custom rail and panel system was developed to allow member stations to be easily added and updated.
Thoughtful and adaptable details create a rich and layered spatial experience.
