Fairview Elementary School
Addition and Renovations
Auburn, Maine













grades K-6
38,000 sq. ft. addition
7,900 sq. ft. renovations

Renovations and an addition that doubled the size of this 1950s-era school brought the latest technology into the educational process, adding computer rooms, a library with a media-retrieval system, and a communications system that links old and new sections of the school.

Natural light and bright colors create an invigorating atmosphere. A one-and-a-half-story bay window in the library provides a sunny, light-filled reading area. A skylight outside the main office brings natural light to a corridor.

Steel culverts cover vertical supports in the library and outside at the entrance, creating the look of classic columns without the cost.
