EXHIBIT PLANNING AND DESIGN

From the elegance of Rome Reborn: The Vatican Library and Renaissance Culture designed for the Library of Congress, to the festive and dynamic atmosphere of the NCAA Hall of Champions in Indianapolis, Indiana, The 1717 Design Group has proven its ability to articulate ideas and inspire audiences using a diverse vocabulary of design styles. Each project is endowed with its own character—a character that is appropriate to the context of the site, the collection, the sponsors, the institution and the interpretive program. The designers at 1717 see their ultimate role in the development of any design project as one of providing vision and balance to the overall interpretive presentation.
