The 1,400-square-foot experience center is part of a recent renovation of the top two floors of One PPG Place, the company’s iconic, Philip Johnson-designed global headquarters. The center features wall coverings, furniture and TV screens from its customers, along with a host of products that exemplify the company’s purpose – WE PROTECT AND BEAUTIFY THE WORLD®.

In addition to the experience center, the renovations include new, open-concept workspaces, collaboration areas, meeting rooms and employee kitchens.
