Little Tiger

This addition to the Little Tiger Chinese Immersion School campus is nestled behind an existing 1940s bungalow in Central Austin. The building draws inspiration from historic one-room schoolhouses with its iconic gable form and belfry. The form is specifically scaled for children, featuring low eaves, child-height windows, and continuous skylight with vertical light baffles for optimal daylighting.
