Three Cedars
Waldorf School

The Master Plan for the re-imagination of the Three Cedars Waldorf School in Bellevue, Washington involved the extensive remodel and addition of the former synagogue. The School has been housed in the existing structures for the past ten years but had recently reached it’s peak student capacity and was in dire need of expansion to accommodate an increasing student population.

Professional Services for the School included: thoroughly documenting the two existing buildings and Site amenities, vetting programming needs for the School for 5, 10 and 20 year time frames with the administrative staff, coordinating the recently completed design of a temporary kindergarten facility and providing design services for the phased expansion of the facility and incorporating and modernizing the two existing structures to create a stylistically integrated complex. 

Having a keen understanding of Architect, Rudolf Steiner’s theories which parallel the underling teaching philosophies of a Waldorf Education were essential components of the School Administration’s selection of a Design Professional for the expansion.

Design was completed in 2006.
