Music man Pharrell Williams and architecture studio Oppenheim are all ready to take the wraps off of the Pharrell Williams Resource Center. The center was built in Williams' hometown of Virginia Beach, Virginia, and is meant to assist the youth of the area in realizing their goals and dreams.
Celebs giving back to the kids of their hometown is nothing new, but the Pharrell Williams Resource Center also gives back to those in Virginia Beach who love modern design and architecture. The Pharrell Williams Resource Center has been built in the area's surrounding woods and designed to look like a futuristic tree house. If the finished project looks anything like the conceptual designs then the children of Virginia Beach are in for a treat.
