The STEAM Innovation Center at Peekskill High School in Peekskill, New York, brings together students in art, theater, music, science, math, technology, and robotics. Created in a storage space and outdated art and technology classrooms, the awkward wedge shape lent itself to nesting the classrooms around a central “mixer” space that supports casual interaction, small group breakouts, large gatherings and exhibits. Light was infused throughout the center by enlarging and adding windows, adding glass doors, and incorporating glass partition walls. The use of glass also makes the activities and exhibits in the STEAM Center visible to students and community members.
