Project Strategy
Walla Walla High School is a large campus school originally built in 1964. 50 years later, the school was in great need of a remodel which included large additions. The flooring was an important piece of this effort. The client needed a product that was durable, maintenance-friendly, and worked in all areas of the school, ie: classrooms, library, meeting areas, and offices, just to name a few. The other dynamic is the school itself, which has exterior hallways that created a need for J+J walk-off mat carpet at all classroom doors. The selection of Kinetex carpet met all these needs and more. The walk-off mat is the same thickness as the main field carpet removing the need for transitions. Therefore, we were able to envision and create a fun and innovative transition between the walk-off mat and the Kinetex field carpet at all entry doors.
