Blakely Elementary School received an Award of Merit at the 2020 AIA Seattle Honor Awards! “I think the connections between the indoors and outdoors, and just the way the building is integrated into the site and the topography is a really brilliant solution. It’s going to be a loved school for many, many generations,” said design juror Marsha Maytum FAIA. “I really applaud both its little bit of whimsy that will be fun for the children, but also its rigor in which it addressed environmental and high-performance issues in the building.” Congratulations, @BainbridgeIslandSchoolDistrict and the entire design and construction team. 📷: @k7scott

Connecting Past with Future. This campus expansion builds upon Annie Wright Schools’ century-old tradition with facilities for the new Boys Upper School program and enhanced spaces for students of all grades. Situated adjacent to the historic main building, the new three-story structure frames the entry courtyard and extends the campus fabric with a consistent material palette and rhythm of openings. Flexible classrooms, shared learning and multi-purpose gathering spaces are positioned for direct access to outdoor learning platforms that span native raingardens. 📷: @laraswimmer
