The Appraisal Foundation

Washington, DC

The Appraisal Foundation engaged KCCT to enhance their new office space with a design that reflects the vibrancy and national presence of the congressionally authorized Washington, DC-based nonprofit organization. The Foundation’s objective was to brand the entry sequence using furniture and finishes in the reception area, conference room, and adjacent hallways. The intended outcome was to showcase the Foundation’s services when hosting international delegates and key valuation professionals.

Design Approach

The design draws inspiration from the organization’s collection of publication materials, with a connection to the visuals of the international and Swiss styles of graphic design. Notably, this approach creates a synergy with the mission of the Foundation, prioritizing objectivity, progressiveness, and a focus on language. The resulting conceptual strategies represent these principles through bold colors, geometric purity, and grid-like patterns.

The application of the grid motif in accent walls is adapted to include diagonal lines that reflect the District’s street network, affording the suite a distinct sense of place.

The design creates a gallery atmosphere to elevate publication materials through changes in scale and display.
