Our Work // Secondary Schools
K-12 Education
We design the sort of schools we’d like to send our own kids to.
Darden Architects has provided comprehensive Architectural, Planning and Interior Design services to K-12 District clients throughout California for over 55 years. We embrace a collaborative design style, and maintain the highest standards for quality control. We want our schools to be sustainable, safe and well suited to the District’s needs.

“The project leaders for Darden Architects are collaborative with our facilities leadership, curriculum staff, and board. They listen to our goals for the project and provide us experienced input to make informed decisions about how best to reach those goals.”
