Don Campbell Elementary School
Don Campbell Elementary School (K-5) is the first new school for the Red Deer Public School Division in over a decade.
Location
Red Deer, AB
A new design for 500 students, the school embraces 21st Century Learning approaches with a partnership arrangement with the City of Red Deer to allocate extra funding and space for community, flexible learning areas.
The school uses outdoor classrooms throughout the project and is organized into a series of four quadrants around a centralized learning commons.
The Client stressed the idea of ‘fun’ in the process and the design captures this ethos through a series of very colorful exterior and interior applications to materials and finishes.
Additionally, a “light spectrum” concept has been broadcast into an external screen that features colored LED lighting that can be programmed for unlimited illumination patterns.
