Yale University

An elliptical glass structure with a wavy facade, the Tsai Center for Innovative Thinking, designed by Weiss/Manfredi, sits in bold contrast with the Neo-Gothic buildings for which Yale University's campus is famous. Our combination translucent/sheer curtains in a cheerful yellow hue enliven the building with a tranquil drape and an optimistic, inviting airiness.
