Linus Pauling Middle School

The new school is a replacement of an existing middle school. The concept is to provide houses or schools-within-the-school to allow for particular grade areas as well as spaces where all grades can interact. Designed with maximum flexibility to allow the building to adapt to continually changing education paradigms.
