Designed for W. L. Gore & Associates, the Capabilities Center provides a comprehensive spatial and interpretative experience  Designed in collaboration with Bluecadet, visitors engage in a sequence of interactive experiences that evoke Gore’s capabilities, culture, and commitment to innovation.

Visitors enter the center through a sculptural corridor lined with custom milled panels featuring integrated, motion-triggered lighting elements. The CNC-milled plywood panels lead visitors through a guided experience from raw material to highly-processed product, serving as a metaphor for W. L Gore’s material science capabilities and product innovation.
