The 500,000 sf Almeta Crawford High School in Fort Bend ISD serves over 2,800 students and was designed by DLR Group. Learning environments are dispersed throughout the two-story buildings and are comprised of classrooms, science labs, a multi-purpose room, teacher planning centers, and a learning lab. They are organized around open, collaborative spaces with learning stairs connecting the two levels. Multi-purpose rooms on the lower level open up to the courtyard to allow learning activities to spill outdoors. The use of operable partitions, mobile marker boards, and flexible furniture allows students and educators to easily create the ideal learning space for every need. © Wade Griffith Photography 2024 #educationdesign #learningenvironments #schoolarchitecture #AlmetaCrawford #DLRGroup #highschool Paul Kweton Jillian Diffee, NCIDQ, IIDA Amanda B.

Tupps Brewery, situated on a historic granary site just outside of downtown McKinney, Texas, was designed by conduit architecture + design LLC. Spanning 3.5 acres, the development features a 24,230 SF brewing facility, a 10,620 SF taproom, and an 8,500 SF barrel aging space. The site is thoughtfully designed to include multiple beer gardens, sculptures, a concert lawn, event spaces, and play areas for both children and adults. Much of the existing equipment and materials were repurposed as decorative elements, celebrating the site's origins and enhancing its unique character. This collaborative endeavor between the City of McKinney, and the McKinney Community Development Corporation aims to provide the local community with enhanced park and event spaces, while offering TUPPS Brewery a new location to expand and thrive.
