Clark Elementary School

Scope:

Built in 1931, Clark Elementary is one of the oldest schools in Charlottesville. It serves students from preschool through fourth grade.

Charlottesville City Schools decided it was time for a facelift for the school and wanted to explore the idea that furniture could make a dynamic impact for an existing learning environment.

We outfitted each grade level classroom with new flexible and ergonomic furniture that would help engage students and allow them to work both in collaboration with each other on group projects, but also work individually when necessary.

Each grade level received appropriate height student work-surfaces and seating options based on the age group of students using the furniture. The furniture brightened up each space and provided a much more inviting classroom experience for the students.

One unique thing we did on this project is we provided built in custom storage solutions in the 4th grade classrooms to help set these rooms apart from the rest of the facility.
