Mountain empire Junior High School Modernization

This project encompasses 16,916 SF of refurbished interiors and a new entry for the school. The administrative and classroom buildings were refreshed. Site renovations created a new outdoor lunch and gathering area served by a warming kitchen.

As a designer on this project, some unique design opportunities had presented themselves. Our design had to respond to and acknowledge on-site megalithic art sacred to the local indigenous culture.

Through the design process with the district, exterior and interior design options were developed, exploring material and color options, creating a refreshed middle school identity, that will seek to reinforce school pride. Middle school and science classroom design standards were also established.
