Washington School for the Deaf's groundbreaking facility serves as the nation's premier model for accessible, culturally responsive educational design. Our approach: support the mission of this innovative campus by centering Deaf culture.

Student and staff-led workshops helped shape every detail – from U-shaped configurations with 180-degree sightlines to optimize sign language instruction, to low-glare surfaces and acoustic flooring to reduce sensory strain. The result: inclusive spaces that amplify student potential, plus a welcoming environment for the entire community.
