CCR Architecture & Interiors worked with UAB to create a new UAB Early Learning Center, a childcare facility for the university’s faculty and staff.
Operated by the university to offer employees quality on-campus childcare, UAB’s Early Learning Center expanded its offerings through a new facility designed to accommodate over 200 children.The new single-story facility doubled the number of children the previous center served and increased the capacity for infants from 10 to 44.
Centered around an outdoor playground and indoor play area, the design includes separate spaces for infant, toddler, and preschool age children.
Custom wall graphics in each classroom provide color and imagery catered to each age group.
CCR was founded in 1996 by Tammy Cohen and has since grown into a 20-person team with 6 managing partners. Despite growth and diversification of talents over the years, they have remained committed to staying a small, responsive firm that focuses on providing unique, customized design solutions.
