From the 2024 Architectural Portfolio: C.W. Cline Elementary School

Jan. 17, 2025

The design for Cline Elementary School in Friendswood, Texas, emerged from a collaborative process involving administration, staff, parents, community, and students. The school's central learning commons offers spaces for large group instruction and personalized learning. The design emphasizes three key areas: cultivating community through spaces that support gathering and engagement; promoting “learning anywhere” by creating versatile, naturally lighted environments; and encouraging choice, with flexible learning spaces and outdoor areas that cater to individual student needs.
