Early Childhood Education
Inspiring a lifelong love for learning
Early childhood facilities and providers aim to give their communities expert staff, high quality programs and materials, and developmentally appropriate learning environments. The buildings we design reinforce these essential learning components.
Our job, successfully accomplished, prepares the stage for others to become the stars—teachers optimize use of their learning environments to inspire students and students become thoroughly educated through various forms of discovery.
Our design process for early childhood education facilities is rooted in a school’s educational program goals and engages a wide range of participants such as the administrators, educators, students, and citizens. As designers, and also as parents, we strive to deliver, on time and within budget, exciting and functional designs that motivate the intellect and enhance the learning process for future generations.
Getting back to school
The COVID-19 global pandemic has disrupted many long-held assumptions about how your facilities operate. Our team of planners, designers, architects, engineers, scientists, and project managers have come together to provide advice that will help you make informed decisions about the design and operations of your schools—from fostering resiliency to managing user experience to recommended facility protocols.

The design process is as much about relationships as it is about capabilities; I work to develop relationships as much as my technical skills.
Patrick Calhoun, Principal, Business Center Operations Leader, Senior Planner
