We’re proud to see Lebanon R-3 School District, Robert W. Plaster Center for Student Success come to life!

Sapp Design helped transform the former VF Mall into a 102,000-square-foot learning environment that includes a new Early Childhood Center, Schools of Discovery, biomedical and teaching programs, GOCAPS, a medical simulation lab, and more.

With Sapp Design’s experience adapting former big-box and retail spaces, we’ve seen firsthand how these buildings can provide tremendous value—giving existing community assets new life while creating flexible, cost-effective spaces for the future.

Congratulations to Lebanon R-3 School District and everyone who helped make this vision a reality!

The Lebanon School District turned a mall into a center for innovation The renovated and innovative space is the Robert W. Plaster Center for Student Success.

We’re proud to have played a part in bringing several of Bolivar R-I Schools’ Proposition Liberators projects to life.

It’s rewarding to see these improvements completed and now serving students, staff, and the Bolivar community. Congratulations to the district, project partners, and everyone who supported Proposition Liberators and helped make these investments possible.

A major milestone for The City of Centerton, Arkansas! On Monday we celebrated the groundbreaking of the new Centerton Recreation Center, marking the beginning of an exciting investment in health, wellness, and community.

We are so excited for the Rolling Hills Library and the St. Joseph community! On Saturday they officially opened their doors! 📚

The new 36,000+ square foot facility sits on 4 acres and is surrounded by natural landscaping and beautiful views, creating a welcoming space for the community to gather, learn, and connect. The building is now home to the library’s largest branch, the Bookmobile office and garage, administration offices, and the Friends of the Library’s used bookstore, Books Revisited.

We are excited to see this incredible community resource come to life and the impact it will have for years to come.

Congratulations to everyone involved in bringing this project to completion! 🎉

We were lucky to be part of the Legacy Brick Pavers, making it even more meaningful as we head toward the Route 66 Centennial. It’s more than a place; it’s the stories, people, and history of U.S. Route 66, set in stone. 🧱

Last week we had a Plaque Delivery Day for three outstanding schools. Each one a reflection of vision, collaboration, and a commitment to creating spaces where students can truly thrive.

From early conversations and planning to seeing these buildings come to life, it’s moments like this that remind us why we do what we do. These plaques represent more than a finished project, they celebrate the people, partnerships, and purpose behind each space.

Congratulations to all three schools on this milestone! We’re honored to have been part of your journey and can’t wait to see the impact these spaces will have on the community for years to come.

Libraries aren’t just quiet anymore (and we love that).

They’re where people gather.
Share ideas.
Build things. Start things.

Some of the best spaces we design aren’t about bookshelves at all, they’re about connection.

Because finding your joy sometimes looks like finding your people.

(And maybe a really good meeting room with great daylight.)

Happy Administrative Professionals Day!

Today we’re giving a big shoutout to the team members who keep Sapp Design Architects running behind the scenes and, honestly, keep the rest of us from falling apart.

To our Administrative team, for keeping the details straight, the calendars in line, the messages polished, and the chaos under control. You juggle schedules, solve problems, keep us organized, and somehow make it all look easy.

Every office has people who make the business work. We’re lucky enough to have three who do that and probably about 500 other things no one even sees.

We truly could not do what we do without you. Thank you for everything you bring to Sapp Design every single day.
