The Coronado High School is an adaptive Re-Use project of an 11,000 sq. ft. existing commercial/warehouse facility. The owner/user Accelerated Learning Solutions was in need to develop and accommodate 150 Students in different class room settings with individual computer desks. Some of the challenges of this project was the need to update the facility to present code requirements, and the owner’s urgency in his schedule to be able to open the facility following the school year. Structure, restroom, HVAC and electrical systems, landscape and irrigation were all designed according to the new code guidelines. Support facilities for the students and the faculty were also part of the project scope. Faculty and student lounge were provided with exterior pleasant views.
The completion of the project and fulfillment of the client’s needs came as a result of good communication and information exchanged between owner, contractor, consultants and architects.

The Allied Health Facility for Edison Community College is a 68,000 square foot building housing the college’s health related programs. The facility serves: Associate Degree Nursing, Cardiovascular Technology, Radiological Technology, Physical/Occupational Therapy, Respiratory Therapy Technology, Emergency Medical Services and general sciences. The Dental Hygiene and Dental Assistant programs are taught in a full service dental clinic.
In addition to the laboratory settings, the facility also includes administrative offices, general classrooms, and a state-of-the-art 100-seat Distance Learning Center.

Completed in 2000, the Allied Health Facility created a new front door to the Lee County campus with a two-story atrium space and curvilinear form, without departing from the character of the existing campus.
