BOSTON, Nov. 19 /PRNewswire/ -- Architecture Involution LLC (Ai3) and
Triumph Modular, two Massachusetts-based companies, are in the process of
unveiling the CASE 21 (Creative Academic Sustainable Environments for the 21st
Century) classroom solution -- a high-performance learning environment
employing state-of-the-art green design, organizational layout and technology
integration. The U.S. Green Building Council's 2008 Greenbuild Conference and
Expo, which begins in Boston on November 19th, will feature an important,
complementary classroom effort by San Francisco-based Project FROG.
"It is exciting to see the modular building industry, the green building
industry, and the architectural world all coming together to address the
challenge that so many school systems across the country face," said Cliff
Cort, president and CEO of Triumph Modular. "School systems are looking for
cost-competitive ways to provide energy efficient, high quality classrooms
that enhance learning. Both CASE 21 and Project FROG offer important
solutions to this challenge."
"Students across America are not in environments that allow them to learn
to their maximum level," said James Jordan, co-founder and partner at Ai3.
"Many typical classrooms -- as currently designed -- ignore the positive
effects that daylighting, ventilation, air quality, acoustics, sightlines,
technology integration, sound reinforcement and other key factors have on
learning. We have seen the results of incorporating these positive effects
into our design philosophy for several years -- students learn better, smarter
and faster in these environments. It is encouraging that others are beginning
to recognize and promote the importance of these elements."
CASE 21 integrates the most advanced principles of green, sustainable
design to maximize energy efficiency, minimize environmental impact and
provide a classroom setting that is genuinely healthy. It combines the most
advanced principles of design for the ideal learning environment with the
rapid-delivery, cost-control benefits of modular construction. The CASE 21
classroom solution is constructed completely off-site, in a climate-controlled
environment that virtually eliminates delays or other obstacles related to
weather, site disruption or other factors. Installation is executed by the
most experienced technicians in the modular industry. The construction and
installation process was developed based on years of research and practical
experience at Triumph Modular -- the nation's leading provider of high-quality
permanent and temporary modular buildings for education, health care and other
key economic sectors.
