In collaboration with San Jose Unified School District and the architect, Carducci Associates developed a 2.2-acre site plan to intermingle art and functionality for the Family Early Learning Center housed in a group of portable buildings that comprise a multi-use community facility, an adult and general education center, administration offices, health center facilities, a preschool, and a playground. An inspiring learning environment for all who visit the site, the unique play environment features a celestial-themed play area, a play grove, and an interactive water play feature for children. The Center also features a jacaranda colonnade, a learn-wave plaza, and an infinite spiral gateway.
