The Country Day School is a private school located in King City, Ontario, north of Toronto. Its new main entrance, central atrium, dining hall, and upper school represent some of our earlier explorations of midrange fractal patterns in the form of repeating triangles and diamonds. Because the project was built relatively early in our research into enriched environments, its different components did not explore the concept of positive ambiguity as did later education projects, such as the Lauremont School Elgin Mills and Bayview campuses and Royal St. George’s additions, where we began to overlay triangular and circular forms.
