Designed to reflect a culture.
DSGW worked with the Grand Portage Band of Ojibwe to create a Tribal Office
Center that would reflect council member’s open relationship with
the community. This was accomplished by orientating the offices around public
spaces to encourage interaction between the community and tribal council
members.
Situated on a bluff overlooking Lake Superior, the building replaced a smaller facility that had been outgrown. The new Tribal Office Center is now located on the same site to maximize existing dynamic views from the office and public spaces.
