The SmartSpace Premier Classroom design transforms LEED® principles into building practices. Eco-friendly, healthy and energy efficient, this relocatable classroom can be ready to occupy as much as 50% sooner than conventional construction. Flexible, innovative and customized to suit your architectural needs and construction specifications, SmartSpace engages a philosophy that results in a better building envelope with improved thermal performance, all steel construction, better indoor air quality, and according to an independant energy study completed for the Carroll School- all at an energy cost savings of over 50%.
