The 1994 Conagra Brands Atrium was conceived as a crossroads—a gathering space linking the 1994 Scott Pavilion with the original 1931 Joslyn Building. During public hours, its west end is home to The Durham Cafe, which has been expanded to include a seasonal outdoor seating area. The Cafe Atrium features Brazilian Verde Lavras granite flooring, north and south walls of Georgia Pink marble, and a solid glass west wall. This grand room is noted for the play of sunlight and shadows on its surfaces and the Dale Chihuly sculpture suspended from its 45-foot-high glass ceiling.
