泰登学校是一所具有公共目的的私立学校，是位于阿肯色州本顿维尔的一所新的独立初中和高中。该校的独特课程将卓越的学术成就与实践学习相结合，并设有三个特色项目。 车 轮（通过建造和使用自行车和其他轮子机器，使物理学和机械学领域变得生动起来），膳食（通过种植和准备食物，使生物、化学和社区变得生动起来），以及卷轴（通过制作电影和录像，使叙述和视觉交流变得生动起来）。
A private school with a public purpose, Thaden School is a new independent middle and high school in Bentonville, Arkansas. The school’s unique curriculum combines academic excellence with learning by doing and features three signature programs: Wheels (where the fields of physics and mechanics come alive through the construction and use of bicycles and other wheeled machines), Meals (where biology, chemistry, and community come alive through the growing and preparation of food), and Reels (where narrative and visual communication come alive through the production of film and video).
通过与附近的社区组织在视觉和烹饪艺术、自行车和社区服务方面的合作，学校将为学生提供在校内外学习的机会。学校的“全身心”教学法将以室内和室外的学习机会为特色。
Through its partnerships with nearby community organizations in the visual and culinary arts, bicycling, and community service, the school will provide students with opportunities to learn both on and off campus. The school’s “whole student/whole body” pedagogy will feature learning opportunities both indoors and outdoors.
校园规划。校园规划通过创建一条 "共享街道 "将两个独立的地块统一起来，汽车、行人和骑自行车的人可以在上面共存。在两侧，校园建筑采用了阿肯色州熟悉的策略，狭长的建筑方向控制了南方强烈阳光的照射，并允许屋檐下的自然通风。
这些长形建筑被设计地弯曲，以防止内部走廊过长，并在外部形成聚集空间。校园本身是一个教学工具，作为农业的生产性景观和恢复性景观，解决了洪水问题，恢复了原生生态系统。
Campus Plan. The campus plan unifies two separate plots by creating a “shared street” on which automobiles, pedestrians, and cyclists can coexist. On either side, campus buildings use a strategy familiar in Arkansas, with long narrow buildings oriented to control the exposure to the intense southern sun and to allow natural ventilation at the eave. These long forms are strategically bent to prevent long internal corridors and to frame gathering spaces outside. The campus itself is a teaching tool as a productive landscape for agriculture and a restorative landscape that addresses flooding and restores native ecosystems.
该项目是对与Eskew Dumez Ripple、景观建筑师Andropogon和工程公司CMTA合作创建的全面总体规划的多阶段实施。马龙-布莱克韦尔建筑事务所设计了校园内7座建筑中的6座，在2019年至2021年期间完成。
The project is a multi-phased implementation of a comprehensive master plan created in collaboration with Eskew Dumez Ripple, landscape architects Andropogon, and engineering firm CMTA. Marlon Blackwell Architects designed 6 out of 7 buildings on the campus, completed between 2019 and 2021.
学校以他的名字命名的先驱飞行员路易斯萨登的原住所已搬迁到校园的东北角，作为通往第八街和 C 街拐角处的门户。外观经过精心保存和重建，以反映其原始外观，并辅以新的独立洗手间，位于房屋的南面，以创造出 20 世纪早期欧扎克农庄常见的庭院配置。内部打开以揭示历史建筑，并创建一个更宏伟的入口和会议室。较小的侧翼是会议室和画廊，第二层被重新配置，以存放房子和 Thaden 家族历史的私人档案。
Buildings. Thaden House (2019). The original home of pioneering aviator Louis Thaden, for whom the school is named, has been relocated to the northeast corner of the campus, serving as a gateway from the corner of Eighth and C Streets. The exterior is carefully preserved and reconstructed to reflect its original appearance, complemented by a new detached washroom, positioned to the south of the house to create a court configuration common in early twentieth-century Ozark farmsteads. The interior opens to reveal the historical construction and create a grander entrance and boardroom. The smaller wing is a meeting room and gallery, and the second level is reconfigured to house a private archive of the history of the house and the Thaden family.
新的艺术和行政大楼容纳了塔登学校的标志性项目--卷轴，并包括教室、湿式实验室和行政空间。起伏的屋顶设计是为了应对水收集和采光的环境挑战，也是为了框住入口和连接各种景观。从校园的几乎所有地方都可以看到，独特的屋顶坡度和滚动提供了日光和通风。坐落在校园的东北角，一个大的入口门廊通向校园中心，塔登表演楼，以及与塔登之家共享的庭院。
Reels Arts and Administration Building (August 2019). The new Art and Administration Building houses the signature Thaden School program, Reels, and includes classrooms, wet labs, and administrative spaces. Designed to respond to the environmental challenges of water collection and daylighting, the undulating roof also frames entries and connects various landscapes. Visible from almost everywhere on campus, the distinctive roof pitches and rolls provide daylight and ventilation. Sited on the northeast corner of the campus, a large entry porch leads to the campus center, the Thaden Performance building, and a courtyard shared with Thaden House.
与Reels项目位于同一位置，管理部门与校园活动保持联系，并为初中生提供一个支持性和培养环境。在室内，教室和湿实验室被服务空间分隔，包括存储空间、卫生间和机械区域。采光走廊连接着不同的实验室，并与学生的学习和研究空间相连接，创造了一个动态和协作的学习环境。
Co-located with the Reels program, the administration remains connected to the activity of the campus and provides a supportive and nurturing environment for first-year middle-school students. Inside, classrooms and wet labs are divided by bars of service spaces that include storage, restrooms, and a mechanical area. A daylit corridor connects the various labs and is lined with student learning and study spaces, creating a dynamic and collaborative learning environment.
标志性车轮计划的所在地，科学与制造大楼通过将校园与本顿维尔广场连接起来，为学校创造了一个公众形象。该建筑位于 2 个学生公共空间的西部和 Thaden 表演大楼的南部，向东开放，营造出入口和抵达感。Main Street 沿线的天篷充当了校园的“广告牌”，并为 Wheels 实验室创造了一个户外工作空间。与艺术和行政大楼类似，Wheels 大楼屋顶既是一种形象表达，也是一种表演性反应。
Wheels Science and Fabrication Building (August 2020). Home to the signature Wheels program, the Science and Fabrication Building creates a public presence for the school by linking the campus to Bentonville Square. Situated west of the 2 student commons and south of the Thaden Performance building, the building opens to the east to create a sense of entrance and arrival. A canopy along Main Street acts as a “billboard” for the campus and creates an outdoor workspace for the Wheels lab. Similar to the Arts and Administration Building, the Wheels building roof is a performative response as much as it is a figural expression.
车轮建筑的线性平面允许沿着它的脊柱简单地分布程序，而标志性的程序固定在东西两端。覆盖区域将学生的工作空间延伸到建筑外，与户外连接，并向校园和社区展示活动。创客空间位于学生公共空间，学生和他们的作品总是在这里展示。一个大的中央走廊变宽，以容纳学生合作和学习空间，从上方照明，全年一致的采光水平。
The linear plan of the Wheels building allows for a simple distribution of programs along its spine, while signature programs anchor the east and west ends. Covered areas extend student work spaces out of the building, connecting with the outdoors and displaying activity to the campus and the community. The maker space is located in the student commons, where the students and their work are always on display. A large central corridor widens to accommodate student collaboration and study spaces lit from above with a consistent level of daylighting throughout the year.
自行车棚位于校园东部边缘的护堤上，紧邻足球场、越野赛和抽水机跑道，它被整合到一个人行道网络中，该网络将萨登学校与延伸到整个阿肯色州西北部的更大的小路系统连接起来。通过重新配置奥扎克谷仓的轮廓，使桁架下面的高度最大化，可以容纳各种运动，包括排球、篮球和自行车，同时也提供自行车存储和支持设施。
当地制造商制造了桁架，这些桁架是利用当地材料和专业知识合作开发的。外墙用当地的柏树包覆，并用传统上用于谷仓的红漆或保护木材的透明漆进行装饰。在西侧，一个深深的门廊面向足球场，为观众提供庇护和阴凉。除了储藏室和更衣室外，整个空间通过柏木板护墙板上的开放缝隙、通风天窗和一系列向周围景观开放的卷帘门的组合进行自然通风。
Bike Barn (May 2020). Sited on a berm on the eastern edge of the campus next to the soccer field, the cyclo-cross, and the pump track, the Bike Barn is integrated into a network of pedestrian pathways that connect Thaden School to a larger system of trails that extend throughout northwest Arkansas. By reconfiguring the profile of an Ozark gambrel barn to maximize the height below the trusses, a variety of sports can be accommodated, including volleyball, basketball, and cycling, while also providing bike storage and support facilities. A local manufacturer fabricated the trusses, which were developed collaboratively using local materials and expertise. The exterior walls are clad in locally sourced cypress and finished with a combination of red paint traditionally used on barns or a clear finish that protects the wood. On the west side, a deep porch faces the soccer field and provides shelter and shade for spectators. Except for storage and locker rooms, the entire space is naturally ventilated through a mix of open joints in the cypress board siding, vented skylights, and a series of roller doors that open to the surrounding landscape.
正如校园总体规划所设想的那样，Performance 位于主校区的西北角，凭借其位置，公众高度可见，并在保持校园安全的同时作为社区联系的一个吸引人的中心。
该建筑支持各种表演艺术教育项目，包括音乐、戏剧和电影，所有这些项目都可以方便地进入世界级的表演场地。
多功能和高效的空间分配提升了学校作为即兴创作、实验和想象舞台的使命和身份。
宽敞的凉廊和富有表现力的天篷营造出强烈而温馨的街道边缘。
它们远远超出了建筑物的主体，并通向一个天窗入口。
除了五彩金属外壳升起时露出的每一面的玻璃外，3 个表演厅中只有一个大窗户突出了外壳。
眺望校园和原来的 Thaden House，这扇巨大的窗户在内部更大，为原本封闭的表演厅带来柔和的间接光线。
表演厅从舞台直接连接到房子后面，是一个多功能和专业的创意表演场所。
Performance (November 2021). As envisioned in the campus master plan, Performance is situated on the northwest corner o
f the main campus and, by virtue of its location, is highly visible to the public and serves as an inviting hub for community connection while maintaining campus security. The building supports a wide variety of educational programs in the performing arts, including music, drama, and film, all with ready access to a world-class performance venue. The versatile and efficient allocation of space advances the school’s mission and identity as a stage for improvisation, experimentation, and imagination. A generous loggia and expressive canopy create a strong and welcoming street edge. They extend well beyond the main body of the building and lead to a skylit entryway. Other than the glazing on each side revealed when the multicolored metal shell lifts, only one large window in the 3 performance halls punctuates the exterior shell. Looking out to the campus and the original Thaden House, this monumental window is even larger on the interior, which brings soft, indirect light into an otherwise sealed performance hall. With direct connections from the stage to the back of the house, the performance hall is a versatile and professional venue for creative performance.
