Workplace A+D went on to consult with Wachovia on the interior architecture, modular wall concepts and vendor selection for the building. In addition, our firm was retained to design a state-of-the art educational, learning, and conference center that to be used jointly by Wachovia Corporation and Wake Forest University’s graduate MBA programs in Charlotte, NC.
