Expertise: Education: Early Learning to Secondary
Architecture as learning tool. Environment as teaching partner. Mahlum passionately commits to using educational design to support students, teachers and the community, reinforcing connections at all levels. Our work spans more than 70 years in the Pacific Northwest with hundreds of successful, community-based projects completed to date. Our design philosophy is based on the simple premise of listening — to the needs, the environment and the social context. From educational delivery trends to best practices in building design, Mahlum harnesses knowledge to create unconventional design solutions that are relevant, hard-working and fiscally responsible.
