Right picture below shows Robinwood’s new Main Entrance and the photo bottom left gives the view inside these doors of a New Corridor with its laminated pine trusses and oak doors and trim. The block column at the corridor’s end designates where old meets new in a gesture that makes visitors believe both areas have always coexisted. The door and glass wall to the left of this column leads to the Learning Resources Center, a remodeled area more than 2 times the size of the original library.
The photo above shows the New Northeast Facade, with an entrance canopy that proudly names its school and reaches out to welcome those about to enter. A new exterior insulation finish system shows off the school’s color in deep blue accent bands, and new blue coping wraps around the entire school in an aesthetic echo. The facility also received new thermal break, extruded aluminum windows and doors in matching blue.
