The 53,000-square-foot (4,900 m²) building was designed by Allied Works Architecture, and OLIN designed the landscape.
The interior was designed by Ralph Appelbaum Associates.
Turner Construction Company was the general contractor.
The Associated General Contractors of America named it the most significant construction project of 2018 and the best new building $10 to $75 million.
The building and its park space cost $75 million, while an additional $7 million was raised for the museum's startup and operation.

The building is rounded, 300 feet in diameter, with a minimalist interior.
Full-length windows on the mezzanine are vertically striped to resemble military ribbons.
Visitors can walk atop the museum's grassy roof for views of the Columbus skyline and a place to reflect.

The museum includes a 2.5 acre outdoor memorial grove that includes a reflecting pool and memorial stone wall.
The stated purpose of the architecture is to promote remembrance.
