South Franklin Elementary School in Carnesville, Georgia, is the Franklin County School System’s newest addition. Designed to replace and modernize an aging facility, South Franklin is home to grades K-5. The facility is a single-story school designed to accommodate up to 745 students in 50 instructional units. South Franklin features a spacious adjacent cafeteria with a beautiful, coffered ceiling, halls with abundant natural light filtered through decorative skylights, and angular, geometric archways in the entrance corridors. Tasked with creating a space that felt dynamic, uplifting and vibrant, the architect prioritized adaptable, flexible learning spaces and a confident use of color throughout the design.
