DESCRIPTION
The project consisted of transforming the 350-seat auditorium, lower level hall and main entry lobby space in the New York Times Building for the two-day Schools for Tomorrow Live Conference. The Conference brought together 400 of the most influential leaders in teaching, government, philanthropy and industry.
The design challenge was to create an ensemble of environments which aligned with the New York Times media brand and collectively framed the conference’s annual theme.
The event was designed and optimized for video capture and video archival purposes.
