in the rocky mountains, the big sky school district and streamline transportation were facing intermittent problems, due to long winter storage with temperatures down to -20. With the nearest maitenance shop being 50 miles away. the two clients came to the Communtiy Design Center for a solution to protect and maintain their buses. the project aims to cater to the needs of both fleets, in one building all while blending into an upscale resort community. the garage features three masses to downscale the size of the project. the building sits at two different levels to distinguish between users, and reduce excavation cost.
