Developing Detroit

Developing K.I.D.S. Education Center

Lord Aeck Sargent is leading the architectural transformation of Developing K.I.D.S.' new facility, which aims to revitalize a previously underutilized building into a modern, multifunctional educational hub. The space is designed to enhance the organization's ability to serve the community, featuring eight classrooms dedicated to tutoring and mentorship, as well as specialized spaces like a wellness room, technology lab, and audio-visual studio. These elements are carefully planned to support intergenerational engagement, STEM education, and creative projects. Additionally, a multi-purpose room, teen success lounge, and event hall will further foster community interaction and personal growth, positioning the facility as a pivotal center for educational and social development.
