In this session, Eric Lombardi (Head of School, Fort Worth Country Day) joins Jamie Sartory and Rebecca Sibley (Lake|Flato Architects) to deconstruct the journey of a campus in mid-transformation. Discover how the success of the new Lower School — a project rooted in biophilic design and campus identity — created the institutional "buy-in" necessary to launch Phase 2: The Upper School.Show MoreClick the title to see all detailsShow More

Indicate how the topic is applicable to Health, Safety, Welfare (HSW) Design credits.:This session meets AIA HSW guidelines under Environmental Health and Social Welfare. It details how to improve daylighting, connections to nature, acoustics, indoor air quality and thermal comfort through biophilic design and passive systems in both new construction and reuse/renovation. It addresses safety and welfare by analyzing how inclusive, "loose-fit" programming supports the social and emotional wellness of neurally diverse student populations
Learner Engagement:To engage attendees, we will utilize live digital polling to understand their experience with master planning (i.e. Who has developed or completed a campus master plan in the past three years?) We will then benchmark the audience by inviting them to choose from four primary drivers behind that effort: growth and enrollment, campus identity and experience, deferred maintenance/renewal, or other. Then ask a few volunteers to briefly share their experiences—what shaped the plan, what challenges emerged, and how it has (or hasn’t yet) translated into implementation and momentum.
Learning Objective 1:Describe key strategies for designing a holistic process in a master plan that prioritized renovation over new construction
