这是由Dekker / Perich / Sabatini设计的百年高中。该项目为学校创立了一个新的标准。该学校共容纳2400名学生，用地面积达75英亩，位于拉斯克鲁塞斯，一个位于墨西哥州南部的格兰德河河谷区域快速增长的城市。这个园区式的项目由7个独立的建筑组成，总面积达37万平方英尺，建筑共4层，以适应场地的80英尺竖向高差。该项目的潜在绝对规模被转换成亲切、建筑与环境融合的场地解决方案，在自然地形中创建了有遮挡物的户外空间。广场和庭院充分利用了全年舒适的气候条件，建筑布局形成了一个户外行人广场，对角线地将场地分为两半，提供了东西向连贯的视线通廊。广场提供了一条连续的路径，连接了热闹的球场和安静的课室区域。

Centennial High School established a new benchmark for schools with this new 2,400 student high school constructed on a 75-acre site in Las Cruces, a rapidly growing city in New Mexico’s southern Rio Grande Valley. The campus-style, 370,000sf facility is housed in seven separate structures, requiring four major levels to accommodate the site’s 80-foot vertical drop. The potentially overwhelming scale of the school was transformed into a welcoming, non-intimidating environment with a site solution that nestles buildings and creates protected outdoor spaces within the natural topography. With plazas and courtyards that take advantage of the favorable year-round climate, the buildings are organized to form an outdoor pedestrian concourse diagonally bisecting the site to provide views of the striking Organ Mountains to the east, and the lush Rio Grande Valley to the west. The concourse provides a continuous pathway from the active playfields on the lower western end to the quiet classroom clusters at the higher, eastern end of the site. Separate, distinct campus entries from designated parking areas are provided for students, faculty, and visitors to enhance security, safety, traffic management, and way-finding.

With the landscape providing a strong sense of place, the building architecture is expressed by simple, white stucco masses with a contrasting corrugated gray metal skin to connect them and express vertical circulation and mechanical services. Bright accent colors applied to soffits for protection from the fading rays of the sun are located at building entries to enhance way-finding and provide visual interest. Outdoor “rooms” are created at key locations, protected from sun and wind, to visually connect and extend useable space to the outdoors. The design successfully creates a strong sense of place in a unique New Mexico setting with spatial variety and visual simplicity to promote positive social interaction and safety for students and faculty.
