The Children’s Defense Fund, client

Exterior lighting helps Maya Lin’s abstract ark/chapel sit gracefully in its pastoral setting—facilitating the dynamic flow between interior, exterior and landscape. Multi-functional interior lighting supports a complex program of worship, live performance, conferences and celebratory gatherings for the Children’s Defense Fund.
