Key to NAB’s design is the seamless integration of technology, starting with a transparent LED screen that greets arriving visitors with the daily news — without compromising views of The Capitol beyond the front desk. High-quality A/V and media capabilities support daily operations, while a massive, 32 FT screen of 96 video tiles supports the advocacy work and events NAB hosts every year.

To comfortably transition staff from a predominantly private office set-up into an open office environment, NAB’s headquarters offers approximately 8 room types including a library, several lounges, a café and outdoor terrace, private phone booths, and several conference spaces — all equipped with state-of-the-art technology.

Radio-inspired conference spaces referred to as broadcast boxes, on-air signs that activate when rooms are in use, and custom millwork in the café shaped like sound waves provide a tangible connection to the evolution of media. Subtle details, including hound’s-tooth carpet patterns reminiscent of vintage TV anchor suits and mesh-wrapped columns inspired by microphones, cohesively blend NAB’s sophisticated yet creative design concept.
