Designed by award-winning Boston architect Andrea Leers, visitors to the building find an environment that supports higher education at a global level. The James and Florence Peacock Atrium, the building’s main lobby, showcases contemporary international art. On the rooftop of the fourth floor, two drought-tolerant sedum gardens minimize storm water runoff and help keep the building cool during warm North Carolina summers.
