New 33,200 square foot elementary school for the towns of Chesterfield and Goshen in the Berkshire foothills of rural western Massachusetts. This building replaced two aging and obsolete structures in each of the two towns with single new school designed for grades Pre-K through 6. The school is located on a former potato field, and is designed to emulate the common agricultural structures of the region, while offering refreshing light and airiness to its interior.
