    Phase 2 Campus Plan

    Exciting updates for Malibu Middle & High School! Phase 2 brings 40,000 sq. ft. of new spaces across three buildings: a middle school hub, gymnasium, and aquatics complex. The hub features a media lab, special education & counseling areas, a wellness center, food service, and outdoor spaces. The new gym includes a multi-sport court, fitness studio, and an ocean-view deck. The aquatics complex, adjacent to the existing pool, adds a 40-meter pool, locker rooms, and storage for water and track sports.

    The new buildings are connected by outdoor spaces that boost learning and encourage an active lifestyle. Inspired by Malibu's coastal canyons, the design uses local materials, captures ocean breezes, and frames stunning views to create a true sense of place. Even in early design, we're prioritizing sustainability with high-performance features like a photovoltaic array to offset 50% of energy use, ceiling fans, and operable windows for added comfort.
