Santa Rosa Beach, Florida

“Anytime learning” is the theme for Dune Lakes Elementary. Whether inside the classroom or in open outdoor areas, students are afforded unique opportunities to engage, collaborate and study. Embracing the theory that an abundance of daylight enhances learning, the design team ensured that every classroom had natural light streaming through the windows. For hallways and other areas without windows, large, towering skylights disperse daylight. Stepped seating, teaching walls and interactive wall elements provide additional anytime learning opportunities. A basic teaching module consists of two classrooms, a shared learning space, storage, teacher planning area and single unisex water closets.
