After an extensive search for a fitting location, Lupine Montessori opted to repurpose an old hardware store into their new school. WKA partnered with them following a thorough assessment of several potential sites.
Currently in construction, the design emphasizes the students’ connection to nature, ensuring every classroom has access to the outdoors, ample natural light, and opportunities for outdoor learning. A central living room, flooded with natural light from skylights, acts as the heart of the school, connecting all classrooms. To maintain a focus on the students and teachers, a natural and minimal palette allows their personalities and work to take center stage. This approach ensures that the space truly becomes their own, reflecting their creativity and identity.
