Prosser High School, a replacement school built on a new site in Prosser, Wash., was designed to meet educational program requirements and be a source of pride and place of gathering for the community. The sloping and irregularly shaped site created challenges, including shallow bedrock and an exposed irrigation canal. Multiple concepts were investigated, resulting in a hillside building on the shallow bedrock, which preserved level land for sports fields and parking. The design creates an open relationship between interior spaces, which promote visual security and provide a welcoming, bright, and connected facility.
