The design parti incorporates the oral story-telling tradition with important “landmarks” of the indigenous people of the Americas into an assemblage which is rich in history and culture. The principle architectural feature of the campus is the two-story façade of the administration-library building, which simultaneously depicts the logo of the United Farm Workers and the portrait of Kukulkán - the most powerful deity of the Maya. Materials: Granite stone panels Multi-colored standing seam metal roofs Glazed block tiles Stained colored concrete image Comments: “Preserving history and culture can happen in many ways. This is an excellent example of how a building can project the past into the present, so that future generations of children can learn of their heritage.” Neil@schooldesigner.com | Elementary School
