It's International Day of Education! Check some highlights of a recent elementary project completed by our Iowa studio!
In honor of International Day of Education, step inside the future of learning! Take a look at North Ridge Elementary, one of the two new Waverly-Shell Rock elementary schools, designed to engage 21st-century learning and beyond. With mirrored layouts, these 66,200-square-foot schools are tailored to their unique sites while maintaining a shared vision for student engagement, flexibility, technology integration, and community connection. Highlights include secured entryways, an open-access media center, centrally located student commons, and a gymnasium that doubles as a community space. Built into existing hillsides, the design prioritizes energy efficiency, natural light, and adaptable spaces for evolving educational needs. #InternationalDayOfEducation
