The West De Pere School District has been experiencing rapid growth in the last decade and found that a new Intermediate School was needed for 5th and 6th grades to address projected capacity needs. The new 123,400-square-foot building is a colorful, vibrant, innovative learning center for the Green Bay, WI suburb.
Designed with a “main street” concept, including large corridors and spaces for gathering, blocks of lockers and connected learning spaces, the students and teachers are able to experience more of a “neighborhood” feeling while in.
The design featured several intricate shapes and patterns within the flooring. In addition, there is a large logo “W” for “West De Pere” that was laid into the floor. Part of the challenge was to keep the joints lined up because it looked like a tile with the joints lined up and the unique angles that came together.
The flooring design provides a fun mix of patters and contrasting colors that work within the district’s brand colors and ultimately provides wayfinding and encourages natural gathering spaces.
