As Webster Montessori School grew, so did its need for space to support students and staff.

Edge Architecture and Edge Building & Construction partnered on an addition that brought two new classrooms, a library, and a small meeting room to the school.

The project also considered the outdoor space that plays an important role in the school’s program, alongside practical needs like parking and site drainage.

Completed ahead of the 2024 school year, the addition gave teachers and staff time to prepare the new classrooms for students.

The most meaningful spaces do more than serve a single purpose.

A hallway can be a place to connect. A library can bring a community together. A workplace can create room for both focused work and collaboration. A brewery can be a place where production and hospitality come together, creating a space for people to gather around something made there.

When we design a space, we consider not only what happens inside it, but also how people move through it, use it, and experience it every day.

Those connections help shape environments that work for the people they serve, today and into the future.

GREAT DESIGN BEGINS WITH UNDERSTANDING PLACE.

Every site presents its own opportunities—and the most thoughtful architectural solutions respond to them.

At RIT's Tait Preserve, the design of a new classroom building began with an understanding of the landscape, the existing lodge, and the opportunity to connect learning with the natural surroundings.

By positioning the building within the hillside, Edge created a setting that takes advantage of lake views while maintaining a respectful relationship with the existing property.

It's an approach that reflects how we think about architecture: listening first, understanding context, and allowing the site to help shape the solution.

Shaping the direction of design.

Great campus design considers more than individual buildings. It considers how students experience the campus as a whole.

At SUNY Brockport, EDGE Architecture partnered with Brockport Auxiliary Service Corporation (BASC) to develop a four-phase master plan that reimagines campus retail, dining, and administrative spaces.

From a relocated Campus Store to flexible dining environments that encourage students to gather, study, and connect, each phase is thoughtfully coordinated to support campus operations while planning for the future.

It's an approach that brings together design, functionality, and the student experience.

The impact of thoughtful design extends far beyond the building itself.

For K–12 schools and higher education institutions, architecture creates opportunities for learning, connection, and shared experiences. From classrooms to auditoriums and gathering spaces, these environments serve students, educators, and the broader community in meaningful ways.

Allen Rossignol, President & CEO of EDGE Architecture, shares his perspective on the lasting impact of designing spaces that bring people together.

What should today’s school spaces be designed to do?
More than one thing.
Across K–12 education, classrooms, libraries, cafeterias, support spaces, outdoor environments and athletic facilities are being asked to work harder—and serve students in more ways.
We’re looking at eight design trends shaping how districts can approach renovation and capital planning with both immediate needs and long-term value in mind.

A Building Condition Survey may be required every five years—but its value can extend far beyond checking a box.

Done thoughtfully, a BCS can become the foundation for what comes next: identifying priorities, anticipating future needs and beginning to shape a long-term capital plan.

The question isn’t just, “What condition is our building in?”

It’s also, “What can this tell us about where we go from here?”

We’re revisiting why we see the Building Condition Survey as an opportunity to plan proactively—and make more informed decisions about your district’s future.

When is the right time to call an architect?

It’s not only when you’re ready to build.

Some of the most valuable conversations happen much earlier—when you’re identifying needs, weighing priorities, planning for the future or simply trying to understand what’s possible.

You don’t need to come to the table with all the answers. Bring the challenges. We’ll help you start framing the plan.

A school is more than classrooms. It’s the entire experience—from the moment students and families arrive to the spaces where they learn, gather and connect.

We’re excited to begin work with Wayne Central School District on improvements designed to make that experience even better.

From a new multipurpose space and updated libraries, hallways and foyers to finishes, circulation and safer, more efficient bus and parent drop-off areas, we’re looking at the district as a whole—finding opportunities to create spaces that work better for everyone who uses them.

Because thoughtful school design isn’t just about what a space looks like. It’s about how it feels, functions and supports the people who use it every day.

Community is at the heart of what we do—and sometimes, supporting it means trading our drawings for drivers. ⛳

Recently, Edge Architecture was proud to be represented by two teams at two local golf tournaments supporting AIA Rochester and the Rotary Sunshine Camp.

We’re grateful for opportunities like these to step outside the studio, connect with others, and support organizations that make a meaningful impact in the communities where we live, work, and design.

A great couple of days on the course—and an even better reason to be there.
