A New Home for Learning

In 2004 we helped Gateway Montessori School get on the map in Chicago with the design of their small, two-classroom school. Word about the school caught on, and in less than two years the owners asked us back to help design space for two more classrooms.
When it became clear this year that the school had outgrown its space again, the owners asked us back to help her study the feasibility of buildings to be Gateway’s new home. After analyzing several buildings and crunching the numbers, the school has decided to build a new, ground-up building. We are honored to have the opportunity to help them create a new gateway to learning in Chicago’s Irving Park neighborhood. The design process is underway, here’s a snapshot of where we are.
