WHEN MARRIOTT RECEIVED THE RIGHTS TO BUILD A NEW HOTEL on the site where the Virginia Convention had met to create new laws for the Commonwealth in the late 1700s, the city required a museum component be integrated into the design. Developer Apple REIT selected Design Minds to work with the First Freedom Center to plan and design a new home for the institution’s museum. Our team created a visitor experience that appeals both to hotel guests and visitors—offering an opportunity to explore topics of historic and contemporary religious freedom.
