Montessori Childrens House and School Renovation Update

Montessori Childrens House and School is an AMI certified school for children 3-6 years old. Founded in 1970, we are one of the oldest Montessori schools in the Dallas area. The 38 year old original building is currently undergoing a major facelift. We are expanding and renovating the entire building for the first time in the school's history. This blog serves as an update for construction progress. For more information about the school go to mchs-dallas.org.

THE WALL

The painters are continuing to make great progress in the interior of the school. Unfortunately the lighting does not really work for photography since we have to keep the solatubes covered. I also have to stay out of the fumes which are pretty intense.

However during the beautiful weather this weekend, they were able to complete the priming and painting of the long wall that borders the driveway. When I first recommended this, some were concerned that it may make the area seem to narrow. However, it actually disappears now which has had the effect of enlarging the space.

The strong neutral colors on the schools exterior allow us to use a small shot of strong color on the outside of the exterior doors. The satin nickel door hardware is covered for protect it in the photo below (we don't really had red door handles).

We have approved the custom mix paint colors for the cabinetry and cubbies so enamel work is next on the interior painting list. We hope to have photos for you on this later this week.

Stay Warm!
