Yesterday, members of our team got a sneak preview of Damien Center’s new facility, which is funded in part by a grant from the Fairbanks Foundation. Scheduled to open later this year, the new space will enable Damien Center to expand their services and serve more clients. Thank you to Damien Center for inviting our team into your new space!

We cannot wait to have our new home up and running soon! Thank you so much to Studio Axis for bringing this vision to life.
Behind the Scenes at The Damien Center... Seeing a project come together is one of the biggest rewards of this work. It takes so many talented individuals to bring a vision to life! Indiana’s oldest and largest HIV/AIDS service organization, Damien Center, was very clear about their direction to the StudioAXIS design team from our first interview. Their new center was not to resemble a cold, unfriendly doctor’s office. Instead, Damien Center wanted this new building to put forward a relaxed, welcoming and lively gathering spot that celebrated life. In one stop a client can access a clinic, a pharmacy, social services, a food pantry, and have lunch in a light-infused cafeteria. It was important to bring natural light into the main lobby with clearstory windows, high ceilings and bright white walls that feature wood “ribs”. The building’s exterior skin is comprised predominately of brick and glass panels that have metal accents with open air terraces that allow people the opportunity to meet informally outside. The main entrance from Washington Street is a multi-story glazed elevator core wrapped with an artist’s mural which will be viewed from cars passing by. This project is getting close to completion, and we can't wait to celebrate with this incredible team!
