Ohio Facilities Construction Commission

The Ohio Facilities Construction Commission is responsible for guiding capital projects for state agencies, state-supported universities and community colleges, and Ohio’s comprehensive public K-12 school construction and renovation program. The Commission is also charged with managing the grants process for cultural facilities and community schools. The Commission sets uniform rules, procedures and standardized documents for state construction. Through the OFCC, Brunswick City Schools was able to receive $18.3 million towards the middle school project. This helped to offset the cost to the community.

ThenDesign Architecture

Brunswick City Schools selected ThenDesign Architecture (TDA), from Willoughby, as the architect for the new middle school. TDA has 67 years of experience designing educational spaces. In just the past ten years, they have designed over $1 billion in school facilities and have worked with the Ohio Facilities Construction Committee (OFCC) on several of those projects. TDA has been recognized by The Plain Dealer as one of the Top Workplaces in 2017. They have also received a NorthCoast 99 award as an outstanding workplace and a Weatherhead 100 award for their leadership, growth and success in Northeast Ohio. TDA’s experience includes K-12 schools from all over Ohio.
