DLB Associates has completed numerous projects in educational facilities. The projects range in scope from small renovations to large new facilities, from simple to technically complex projects such as energy-savings programs and data networking systems.
In recent years, the educational industry has experienced more than its share of change.
Previously, educational architects and engineers knew their mission was to be On-time and On-budget. This mission was a challenge but since the projects were highly repeatable and standardized, highly experienced school architects / engineers could achieve Client Delight.
This same mission exists today but the increased difficulty is incredible. Typically, the educational facilities now want to look less institutional and more unique, attractive, and creative.
In addition, educational facilities are constantly being confronted with technology and environmental changes. They require air-conditioning and sophisticated power distribution and telecommunication systems while minimizing energy usage and maintaining a focus on indoor air quality and the impact on the environment.
