Behind the core design concept for the new $25.8M Hawthorne Elementary School, Dallas ISD sought to provide next-generational and interactive learning opportunities for its elementary school students by creating a “hive” of student connectivity, visual curiosity and learning interaction. The highly innovative facility reconnects the campus by providing a safe, collaborative, serendipitous interior student-centered spaces that are open and welcoming, while strengthening the union of students, parents and teachers.
