GF designed the renovation and addition to McDonald Elementary School, which included the addition of a Media Center. The existing media center was converted into classroom space. The new Media Center accommodates books, computers, seating, and student work/activity space. Technology was utilized to allow the Interactive Classroom to be directly accessed and controlled via the main Media Center area. The addition also includes a student video room, A/V storage, and circulation/offices.
Sustainable elements such as natural daylighting were incorporated to add interest to the space and control costs. The addition features a separate entry into the Media Center, allowing the community to make use of the Media Center outside of school hours.
