The COR Museum is a living embodiment of the past, present, and future. Located in the historical Briggs Building, our aim is to modernize its interior while preserving its historical elements both inside and out. To achieve this goal, we undertook a comprehensive redesign that included revamping the window displays, gift shop, and lobby, as well as enhancing the museum's street-side presence. Drawing inspiration from the museum's Women’s History Month Exhibition, we carefully selected furniture and finishes that refresh and enliven the overall atmosphere.
