Recent Projects

Grand Targhee Resort, Alta, Wyoming
White Hutchinson prepared renovation plans for the childcare facility used by families visiting this summer and winter resort in the Teton Mountains. Work included new floor plans, children’s furniture specifications, new flooring, new check-in area and acoustical treatments for the rooms. The child care center is located at the base of the Teton Mountains in a two-room log cabin used for children under the age of 5 during ski season and used for summer camps sponsored by the Grand Targhee Institute, which provides environmentally-based programs for local children during June, July and August.

Christ the King Catholic Church, Jacksonville, Florida
We completed a feasibility study for the possible expansion of an existing child care program sponsored by the Catholic Church. The study included evaluating the existing child care building, visiting other childcare facilities in the community and recommending an expansion program for the new building.

Roper Early Learning Center, Roper St. Francis Health Care, Charleston, South Carolina
We performed an on-site building evaluation for the possible renovation of this childcare center. Work also included evaluation and feedback on proposed renovation of the outdoor play spaces.

Oak Park Preschool, Massillon, Ohio
We provided schematic drawings for the renovation of an outdoor play yard for infants and toddlers and a preschool/school-age yard. We saved costs by recycling parts of an older playground structure into the new design. This was a very small site, so we worked hard at using space in more flexible ways.
