The new proposal for PS 64 operates on the premise of “it takes a village to raise a child.” The organizational framework creates a network of spaces and peoples, building an interior urban environment where community members can participate in the education of the students. The central common areas are surrounded and shaped by a periphery of more enclosed units. This sequence of inside and outside contingent units interlock, creating scalar relationships between the city and the building, and the building and its interior furniture.
