Annenberg Foundation Trust at Sunnylands
Sunnylands, the historic winter home of Ambassadors Walter and Leonore Annenberg, was once visited by seven presidents from Eisenhower to Clinton, and by Queen Elizabeth II, Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, and leading figures from the world of art and culture. The estate is now the Annenberg Retreat at Sunnylands, a high-level retreat center with a visitor center for the public.
Hillmann & Carr created media experiences that interpret the architecture and design of the estate, the Annenbergs’ diplomatic and philanthropic service, their art collection, the estate’s association with historic events and people, and the vision for the estate’s new role in the 21st century.
Visitors can view a pioneering autostereoscopic (3D without glasses) video of the creation of the historic estate, an award-winning orientation film, and engage with six touchscreen interactives with over 450 selections.
