Desert Christian High School, located in Tucson Arizona, needed to expand within their existing property, so a new 2 story, 36,000 SF education building was designed and constructed to create a new quad layout for the campus. One major component of the new building is the new multi purpose room. The space was designed to handle many functions, including full court volleyball, half court basketball, and dining space.

One side of the room has a retractable theatrical seating, which transforms the ‘athletic’ space into a ‘performance’ space. Opposite of the retractable seating is a raised stage, complete with loading area, back sage space, side stage space, green room, storage and washroom. The intent is the space to provide the high school a new home for weekly chapel services, musical performances, and theatrical performances throughout the school year.
