Creating K-12 educational spaces that are secure, comfortable, flexible, functional and adaptable are at the core of our design philosophy. In the latest issue of #NJSBA’s School Leader magazine, Principal Scott Downie discusses why each design aspect is important to the success of student achievement. “Much of this evolution has resulted from the drive toward improving student physical, mental and emotional well-being,” Downie says in the article. “Ideally, the learning space will accomplish two primary goals: Prepare the students to learn and then facilitate the learning process.” Great School Design and Student Achievement: They Go Together - New Jersey School Boards Association.

Senior Living Principal Steve Leone, AIA. LEED ap BD + C , has published an article in Seniors Housing Business about how the senior living industry can improve employee retention and the quality of care for senior living residents. "Ultimately, the essence of reimagining staff retention lies in recognizing that the quality of care and life for senior living residents is directly tied to the satisfaction and stability of the workforce. By implementing comprehensive strategies that address the diverse needs of employees—ranging from competitive compensation and benefits to personal growth and engagement—we create an environment where caregivers feel valued and empowered."

Good puzzling fun! The idea to have jigsaw puzzles in the office came out of Spiezle’s Women's Leadership Committee to encourage employees to take breaks. A culture of wellness in the workplace is important to help us all feeling and performing our best. Over the last few weeks, employee owners from our Philadelphia, Hamilton, and Springfield offices have taken small breaks to collaborate on these colorful puzzles. #mindfulnessmoment #spiezle #workplacewellness
