Vital Voices: Rooted in History + Designed for a Sustainable Future

Vital Voices: Rooted in History + Designed for a Sustainable Future 
This tour will give participants the exclusive chance to explore Vital Voices’ headquarter, a site that reimagines a historic building on Embassy Row as a model of sustainable design. The project transforms the seven-story brick structure into a state-of-the-art headquarters that embodies the mission of Vital Voices: an international nonprofit dedicated to empowering women leaders and advancing human rights around the globe. The design approach focused on creating a “livable” democratic workplace that is both functional and symbolic, while the reimagined floorplan opens up expansive sightlines and introduces natural light throughout the space.
