JERSEY CITY, NJ—Poskanzer Skott Architects recently completed the design of childcare provider River School‘s newest location at 256 Warren Street in Jersey City. According to Barry Poskanzer, AIA, one of the best parts of the project was the ability to exercise a sense of youthful creativity to produce an environment that promotes learning, comfort and fun.

“Developing inviting, nurturing environments for young children allows for more inventiveness and artistic freedom than many other types of projects,” says Poskanzer. “In the case of River School, our underlying theme involved simple lines, with clean neutrals and punches of bright, primary colors.” PSA designed five classrooms, indoor play areas, an administrative office, kitchen and storage in the 5,500-square-foot area.
