Flexibility and adaptability inform a new design with the past in mind
Nestled in a large suburban area in Houston, the original 1956 Landrum Middle School campus needed to be reorganized and modernized to twenty-first century standards. With a strong desire to maintain a connection to the past and its existing identity, the actively engaged community envisioned a new middle school preserved in its natural settings.
Our architectural team designed a phased, onsite replacement strategy yielding a reimagined three-story facility with outdoor learning courtyards, flexible education spaces, and a revitalized identity fostering a culture of pride. By incorporating flexible and adaptable spaces, the new design engages students in a modern education environment catered to personalized learning and various teaching methods.
Our contemporary landscape of the building, now under one roof, creates a safer and more united opportunity to build character, foster pride, and continue a tradition of core community values and beliefs.
