GF designed the media center additions at Maryville Elementary School, featuring open layouts that integrate books, computers, seating, and student activity areas. Sustainability was a key focus, with daylighting enhancing natural light use to reduce energy costs while adding visual interest. To maximize space, the existing media centers were converted into classrooms.
To further connect the new spaces with the surrounding environment, an elevated garden was designed to complement the site’s slope, offering a natural view through a large, curved picture window.
