Brooklyn Friends School

Having originally planned to move its Lower School to a separate site, our team realized, through careful analysis and test-fits, that moving their Upper School to the nearby Metrotech campus would better serve their long-term goals. Taking design cues from the Quaker tenets of simplicity and clarity, the building is flooded with natural light and organic materials across three floors—creating a unified, active space for learning. Rather than narrow corridors, rooms are connected by open galleries and informal gathering spaces, fostering collaboration.
