GROVER BEACH ELEMENTARY

Classroom Design and Site Redesign

PROJECT DESCRIPTION SUMMARY: The program of the final project was to adapt a current K-6 public school to current standards (while pushing the limit on those standards), with a focus on interactive and environmental education. Emma Degnan and I designed a dynamic classroom module to replace the existing portables at Grover Beach Elementary and we redesigned the entire campus to create a fun and stimulating place for Grover Beach students to attend. 

PROJECT REFLECTION: The final project was extremely demanding...but in the end, extremely rewarding. There were so many important details of our project we needed to design and understand: every usable outdoor space, how the program of each building on site operates and the paths of travel throughout the site. I developed my graphic skills, planning skills, attention to detail, and gained an appreciation for design in a partnership with a classmate (and friend).
