The center is located on a 500-acre site on a gently sloping hill with views west to the Catskill Mountains. The buildings for the Center, including permanent and guest residences, an administration building and a meditation hall, are sited as far as possible from the local rural access road, and oriented west and south to maximize views and light. The symbol of the Won organization is an open circle, suggesting both a void without absence and infinite return. The buildings are organized around the dual concepts of void and spiral.

Bridge-Studio houses a painting studio for the husband on the east side, and a writing studio on the west side. An open air breezeway runs through the center of Bridge-Studio, connecting back to the site with an entry ramp to the north. Bridge-Studio is entered by walking up the entry ramp, into the open breezeway overlooking the Delaware River, approximately 120 feet below the site.
