From the 2024 Educational Interiors Showcase: J.H. House School

The project was recognized for outstanding design in the Pre-K/Early Childhood Education category.
Dec. 2, 2024

The J.H. House School in Conyers, Georgia, is on a gently rolling, open, and naturally wooded site. The setting influenced the decision to incorporate a palette of natural materials to complement the beauty of the surrounding landscape. Using glass in strategic areas introduces daylighting and visual transparency throughout. The heartbeat of the school is an open, centrally situated media center with a two-story wall of glass and a covered “back porch” overlooking an outdoor courtyard. An elevated pedestrian walkway with a viewing “crow’s nest” passes overhead and connects the classroom wings on the second floor.
