Arlington Public Schools serves over twenty-five thousand students in thirty-five separate facilities with a total gross area of approximately four million, four hundred thousand square feet. Administrative functions for School system were located in three separate facilities spread throughout the County. To improve operational efficiency, the County wanted to relocate all staff to a single, more centralized location. In response, Studio Twenty Seven Architecture provided an open plan design using colors and clear sight lines to articulate the location of each individual department. The work involved meeting with, and securing approval from, all nine department heads and senior staff in each of the County’s departments. The work included the creation of a new School Board meeting room, with associated audio visual and broadcasting functions. A new convenience stair between floors was added.
