Father Judge High School, Brisson Center

Transforming a traditional library space into something much more is a challenge in an age where students can carry a world of information on the device in their pockets. Libraries have changed into more than spaces to house books—they have become learning commons, welcoming places to encourage exploration and collaboration, bringing together students and educators.

Father Judge High recognized the need to shift its old space to a different type of learning destination, a flexible space where students can gather to collaborate and engage, and the school can provide the support and resources necessary to ensure the success of their students.

With a new glass front, the Brisson Center makes the learning space transparent to the rest of the school, integrating this new form of learning into the daily life of the school. Inside the facility, multiple zones of flexible furnishings enable the space to be configured by students and teachers into whatever arrangements suit their needs that day. Mobile whiteboards offer brainstorming surfaces anywhere. And glass-fronted conferencing spaces offer the opportunity for more group interactions without disrupting the rest of the space.
