The Rippowam Cisqua School tasked the design team with developing a next generation school that would support their immersive programming and transform the Upper Campus while keeping with the community’s “Bedford Barn” architectural tradition and school’s heritage.

The objective of the new community room was to create a flexible gathering space, which replaced a limiting theater, with a space that could be utilized for the school’s morning meetings, assemblies and performances as well as indoor recess and athletic activities including gymnastics, karate and wrestling.
