Education
The educational environment is constantly changing and growing. One concept we have embraced is the design of early childhood education and kindergarten village projects. These buildings provide a stepping-stone from the child’s home to the school atmosphere.

How we address technology on behalf of curriculum has become one of the most critical aspects of our school design and operation solutions for more than 40 projects in the past 40+ years.
