The design concept of the cafeteria ceiling is a space odyssey motif and was selected out of respect for the school’s namesake, astronaut Alan B. Shepard. The exposed acoustical roof deck is painted black with suspended clouds of ceiling tile and aluminum grid that morph into varying shapes and sizes. Various types of direct and indirect light fixtures were chosen to create diverse and dramatic lighting levels. One light fixture in particular is reminiscent of a flying saucer.
