Seix Academy

Project Details

Presented with the enviable task of crafting the founder’s vision for a new campus to provide approximately 110 unique children with a home, Spiezle Architectural Group, Inc. facilitated a highly interactive charrette process to bring this vision to life. Participating with the founder Christina Seix-Down, and recognized educators from around the region and country, a multi-day process delved into the essence of the campus, its inspiration, its operation, and an architecture to support its educational and social goals. Through extensive input and dialog, a three dimensional vision was formed that is being implemented to create a campus filled with new opportunity and the goal of vastly improving a limited number of lives in an unlimited way.

The independent School will be designed on a 60 acre site to house approximately 120 students from an under privileged background. The mission of this school is to provide the children a nurturing home environment with high academic standards. The buildings included on the site will be academic, music, art center, welcome center, dining hall, chapel, boarding houses for all students, faculty along with the library and environmental center. This building will be designed to a minimum LEED™ Silver standard.
