The new Toronto Montessori School (TMS) Middle School is a 10,000-square foot addition to the TMS Upper School campus in Richmond Hill, Ontario. The timber and steel structure, designed by Farrow Partners, adds six new Middle School classrooms and two flexible breakout areas. The glulam timbers on the exterior (from Sansin partner Timber Systems Limited) are shaped like trees that cast playful shadows into the classrooms. Exposed glulam ceilings and timber posts carry the beauty of wood inside. The interior glulam and the timber deck were protected and beautified with two coats of Precision Coat SDF in a custom color. The exterior glulam is made more durable and beautiful with a complete system of KP-12UVW, Precision Coat SDF and Precision Coat SDF Topcoat, all in custom colors.
