Educational
Hamden Hall Performing Arts Facility Hamden, CT
This K-12 private school is located on a highly restrictive sloping site in a residential neighborhood. Our Mandate was to provide campus planning, and architectural services needed to unify the disparate existing buildings on the site to achieve a true campus environment with a campus core. Towards that end, we located the performing arts, science, and library buildings around a central courtyard adjacent to the major existing buildings.
The performing arts facility includes ground floor and mezzanine seating, a proscenium stage with fly loft, a green room, tech booth, and toilet facilities. Additionally, large performing arts classrooms, including music are located in the building.

The science and cafeteria building engages the sleeping site to provide a cafeteria on grade at the base of the slope and science facilities directly off of the school’s central courtyard halfway up the slope. The science facilities include full laboratory classrooms.
Hamden Hall Schiavone Library Hamden, CT
This K-12 private school is located on a highly restrictive, sloping site in a residential neighborhood. Our Mandate was to provide the campus master-planning and architectural services needed to unify the disparate existing buildings on the site to achieve a true campus environment with a campus core. Towards that end, we located the performing arts, science, and library buildings around a central courtyard adjacent to the major existing buildings. The library building leverages the potential of the steeply sloping site by placing its primary entrance on the central courtyard above and a covered drop-off and pick-up area below proximal to parking. The library includes stacks, media learning centers, and study areas.
