Montessori Childrens Room, New Campus Building

After years of growth and demand, Montessori hired our education team to assess, plan, and provide field verification and design for a two-story classroom addition to their school campus. Burrowed in a quiet neighborhood, we provided site analysis to determine how to best preserve and align the new addition to ensure safety and access for both users and community.

Partnering with the School, staff, and key stakeholders, we created a unified program that provided opinions of probable costs associated with select finishes and systems identified. This exercise helped to develop cost comparisons and programming layouts that led us to creating a shared child services vision.

Designed from the inside out to encourage the development of the whole child, we evaluated different layouts that enables children to move freely in a safe and spacious environment while also creating flexibility for future reprogramming while matching the contexts of the existing site building. Natural cork flooring and flexible and vibrant classrooms encourage hands-on learning and inventing spaces that attract and welcome people and children to the environment.
