The Douglass School project in Leesburg, VA, represents a significant architectural design achievement, blending historic preservation with contemporary interior design. Originally established in 1941 by the local African American community as the county’s only high school for Black students until 1968, this project pays homage to the resilience and determination of the community.
Led by MOYA, with Beyer Blinder Belle as the Architect of Record, the interior design team meticulously preserved the school’s original layout, materials, and iconic auditorium, while integrating modern amenities to meet contemporary standards. The rehabilitation involved close collaboration with architects, engineers, and consultants to transform the building into a multifunctional space. This 70,000 square foot project, with a $27 million construction budget, utilized a Design-Build delivery method to ensure that both the historical and functional aspects of the building were honored.
Completed in 2023, the Douglass School campus houses departments of Loudoun County Public Schools, Parks, Recreation, and Community Services, as well as offices for the Edwin Washington Society, the Loudoun Douglass Alumni Association, and the local NAACP chapter.
Recognized in both the Virginia Landmarks Register and the National Register of Historic Places, this project highlights MOYA’s expertise in architectural design services, civic projects, and cultural projects, combining design excellence with a deep respect for historical integrity. The revitalized Douglass School now stands as a symbol of enduring heritage and modern architectural excellence, continuing to inspire future generations.
