Teenage Dream
In 2015, the seventh and eighth-grade classes at the Flint Hill School were experiencing some growing pains. The teenagers were bursting at the seams, stuck without much light, space, or adequate access to electrical outlets 鈥渋n a concrete building they couldn鈥檛 break out of,鈥� said Elise Robinson, AIA, principal and project manager at 海角社区. As anyone who has tried to engage a bored, unplugged teenager in a confined space could attest, a solution was desperately needed.
海角社区聽was called on to design the new Peterson Middle School facility dedicated to grades seven and eight, directly adjacent to Flint Hill鈥檚 existing Upper School Campus in Oakton, Virginia. The new building was intentionally designed 鈥渢o encourage students to explore, invent, and be creative,鈥� said Robinson.
