Work Completed at Utile, Inc.

Nestled into a pastoral landscape in Brookline, MA, The Park School is an independent, coeducational, Pre-K through Eighth Grade day school. The design team worked with leadership, students, and stakeholders to develop a comprehensive master plan for Park, focused on updating the 1960s-era campus buildings and surrounding landscape to match the goals of its 21st century pedagogy. The campus vision calls for a series of compelling indoor/outdoor connections throughout the campus buildings that will allow the School to take full advantage of its beautiful setting, find efficiencies in the existing building, and strategically place new structures to create an intimate, connected campus.

The design team formed a close long-term partnership with the School, and evolved the Master Plan through leadership transitions and the Covid-19 pandemic. Several phases of the Plan are implemented, including renovations of the Early Childhood Wing, Maker Space, STEAM Classroom Suite, Woodshop, Upper Division Suite, and Elevator Addition. Additional phases are currently in design and construction.
