Timpview High School, originally built in the late 1970s, is undergoing a major transformation on the bench in Provo, Utah. Prompted by safety concerns from the community and district due to differential settlement in wet collapsible soils, our design effort focuses on eliminating the most problematic areas, structurally retrofitting others, and rebuilding essential facilities. The extensive renovation includes new multi-level wings to enhance classrooms and labs, as well as dedicated spaces for the arts, athletics, special education, and more. This pivotal project is crucial for the community, and we’re proud of the progress made so far. A big thank you to the dedicated members of the design and construction team for their unwavering commitment to excellence. #ForStudentsToThrive #EducationDesign #SchoolRenovation #VCBOArchitects

We're thrilled to see our K–12 team members, Jeanne Jackson and Brian Peterson, featured in Davis School District's latest "Behind the Build" video! In this video, they give a glimpse into the complex process of transforming initial design ideas for educational facilities into stunning, functional realities. By constantly modifying and fine-tuning different elements, every detail is meticulously considered to ensure student learning is always at the forefront of the design. "Designing schools is one of the best ways that we can help society to be a stronger and better place," Brian shared. "It's very rewarding to design a space and have that come to life — not only in a virtual way but an actual building that benefits the community. These kids can come into the building and thrive and discover who they are." Go behind the scenes: https://lnkd.in/g2dyqaiw #EducationDesign #BehindTheDesign #UtahArchitecture #VCBOArchitects

The new Juniper Elementary School has officially opened its doors! As the first multi-use school in the Jordan School District, Juniper is designed to serve both current and future students. Initially accommodating 4th, 5th, and 6th graders, the school is equipped with the flexibility to evolve into a middle school as the region grows, with future facility expansions planned to seamlessly integrate into the existing architecture. The building’s angular surfaces and 3D-patterned panels create dynamic, engaging interiors while undulating facades and large glass panels maximize natural light. Featuring 32 state-of-the-art classrooms, a tech atrium, and versatile spaces, Juniper is designed to meet the needs of today's upper elementary students while adapting to the community's future growth — blending function with forward-thinking design. 📽: https://lnkd.in/gXnvTAEa #EducationDesign #FlexibleDesign #LearningEnvironments #VCBOArchitects

The University of Utah Health Clinic at West High School was an innovative collaboration between our K–12 and healthcare teams. This state-of-the-art facility, housed in a transformed, unused locker room in West High, offers a modern, welcoming design with a dedicated lobby, four exam rooms, a lab, and support spaces. This partnership between the Salt Lake City School District, Salt Lake Education Foundation, University of Utah Health, and West High School represents a community-based approach to prioritizing student well-being. By providing accessible healthcare on campus, the clinic addresses critical barriers like transportation, cost, and time, ensuring that vulnerable students receive the physical and mental health care they need to thrive academically and personally. As the first of its kind in Utah, this clinic sets a new standard for school-based healthcare, with the hope that its success will inspire similar school-based health initiatives across the state. #ForStudentsToThrive #EducationDesign #HealthcareDesign #StudentWellness #VCBOArchitects

On Monday, VCBO and Hughes General Contractors proudly joined Park City School District to celebrate the ribbon-cutting of the new preschool and community education centers at Jeremy Ranch and McPolin elementary schools. These thoughtfully designed spaces provide safe, engaging, and inclusive environments tailored for early childhood education while also seamlessly incorporating community education and outreach areas accessible to all. Our goal was to create spaces within these existing schools where all students, staff, and community members feel a true sense of belonging. Congratulations to everyone involved on the successful completion of these remarkable facilities!

Happy first day of classes at the brand-new Island View Elementary School! We were thrilled to join Davis School District earlier this week to celebrate the ribbon-cutting of their latest elementary school. Island View builds on the success of previous prototypes, featuring a design inspired by the theme "Bodies in Motion: Connection." Each of the four classroom wings reflects a unique aspect of connection — connect, unite, build, and explore — brought to life through vibrant colors, patterns, textures, and graphics that meander, flow, and join together seamlessly throughout the building. This innovative learning environment is crafted for optimal project-based learning, featuring collaborative areas, energy-efficient features, and playful, flexible spaces that inspire young learners and connect them with their world. Wishing the first students and teachers at Island View a fantastic school year ahead! #ForStudentsToThrive #EducationDesign #VCBOArchitects

And that’s a wrap on the 2024 St. George Slow-Pitch Softball League season! This year, the VCBO St. George team hit the field at the stunning Canyon Softball Complex, teaming up with friends from the AEC industry and our local community. We had an absolute blast competing with teams like the police and fire departments, building camaraderie with every game. After weeks of fun and friendly competition, we’re ending the season with a few bumps, scrapes, and plenty of smiles. Already looking forward to next season! #ForEmployeesToThrive #VCBOArchitects #AEC #StGeorge

The VCBO 2024 Summer Program was an immersive 12-week experience that brought together four talented interns, each with a unique academic background. Natalia Graham, Jen Frazier, Andrew Shearman, and Julia Christensen joined us from various universities to gain hands-on experience in both architectural and interior design roles. Throughout the program, they rotated through different office teams, gaining valuable insights into some of the industries and communities we serve, including higher education, K-12, civic, and healthcare. In addition to their daily responsibilities, the interns participated in a weekly summer discussion series that focused on the architecture and design industry, providing them with a deeper understanding of our practice. A significant highlight of the program was the collaborative summer design project, where the interns dedicated time to research-based work on a higher education design project. They had the opportunity to interact with a client, conduct surveys, interview end-users, and ultimately present their project concept and vision to the entire office. We’re incredibly proud of the creativity and dedication our interns displayed and look forward to seeing their continued success in the industry! #EmergingAEC #AECIntern #VCBOArchitects
