School Design
The team within BBD has enjoyed working on a varied portfolio with a terrific range of curriculum models, locations/cultures, tuition fees, greenfield vs refurbs, hi-tech vs legacy, etc.
Our special strength is our operational insight into how schools work and what is best for teaching and learning. We have worked with the world’s leading architects, and we know how to get the best use of space so that a building is future-proofed.
BBD uses the RIBA Framework 2020 to organize and describe its services.
Our partners usually seek a customized service that fits the region, country, sub-region, city, and specific location they are targeting. BBD staff have decades of experience in designing and planning detailed school works around the world.
The staff have worked in many countries in the Middle East, Europe, and Asia. They have worked with most international and regional curriculum models including US and UK, IB, Indian, Arab, and other national curricula. BBD has a knowledge bank of more than 5000 school design and planning documents.
Projects have included many whole school designs where BBD supports an architectural consultancy that provides professional services and detailed drawings.
BBD’s strength comes from a thorough understanding of school metrics and benchmarks relating to space planning and student experience.
