Every aspect of the Frontier Project will be presented in a way that encourages interaction and the flow of knowledge. Visitors will not only see the building, they will experience the building. By demonstrating to visitors the reasons for choices of systems and materials used throughout the project, visitors will be able to trace the paths of water, energy, people, and resources. For example, storm water runoff from the parking lot will be captured in a water cistern and eventually used for irrigating the site, and placing visible solar panels and strategically shading the site are among the design strategies employed to inform visitors on green systems.

Everything from material and plant selection, the layout of space, and the maintenance regime will have a purpose, demonstrating the principle of green design for home owners, consumers, contractors, design professionals, sustainability advocates and the general public.

The Frontier Project will feature a building that is a community space, to be used by the public and industry professionals as well. The buildings features include a demonstration gallery to view and learn about new technologies, systems, and materials;

a conference room for up to 80 people to attend workshops, classes, and seminars;

an office workspace for up to 15 employees that demonstrates the "office of the future" in a bright, open workspace;

a courtyard with native plants, efficient irrigation systems, and the Own a Stone donor bricks;

a rooftop deck where visitors can view the green roof and photovoltaic technologies at use in the building;

a demonstration kitchen and living room that highlight water and energy efficient appliances, recycled content carpet, flooring, countertops, and cabinets.
