Introduction

“A more proactive stance would distill our mission, goals, and objectives into key messages and talking points…”

Page 7: NSS Headquarters Research and Proposals - PART 2

Based on the services required of the new headquarters, the following section provides a breakdown of fundamental programmatic elements. This preliminary list was derived from a combination of the NSS board’s estimated programmatic needs and our own discussions with NSS members. Within this section, program analysis is broken down further by user type (i.e. member, visitor, and employee) and program category (i.e. monetary, intellectual, and social). Within each proposed project, programmatic elements vary based on individual discretion.

Introduction

“The Congress of Grottos…has stated unequivocally that change in the way public outreach is conducted by the NSS needs to be re-examined, and changed.”

Page 15: NSS Headquarters Research and Proposals - PART 2

Multiple case studies of existing projects that exhibit sustainable design tactics are examined. These projects reflect a similar size and scope to that of the new NSS Headquarters. While no single project examined contains every quality the new headquarters aims to achieve, each provides us with a few elements that are noteworthy in creating our own proposals.
