Crossroads School is a K-12 private school whose upper school is situated on an unconventional urban infill campus. This 13,000 sf warehouse across the street from the original campus, previously used as storage by airplane parts distributor, was acquired by the school to accommodate an eclectic mix of functions that needed to be relocated from adjacent structures.

.
The existing double bow-truss structure provided voluminous ceiling height and the project focused on seizing the opportunities that this provided. The raw industrial aesthetic was sympathetic with the character and ethos of Crossroads School.

The eclectic program of the project was inserted into the existing structure as a set of distinct volume to create the experience of a village under a large roof.

By using warm materials such as rotary cut douglas fir plywood, the negative space between the distinct programmatic volumes is transformed into engaging social space.
