Architectural Digest has named Cape Henlopen High School in Lewes the most beautiful public high school in Delaware.
The list, posted on the magazine’s website this week, names the magazine’s picks for most beautiful public high schools in every state.
“While many high school buildings might be rather bland from a design perspective, there are others that are veritable works of art—we wouldn’t blame you for mistaking them as universities, private homes, or even castles, in some cases,” the magazine said.
The 214,000-square-foot school, completed in 2009, was designed with energy efficient materials, and natural light was instrumental in the design.
The school was designed by BSA + A of Wilmington and EDiS Company of Wilmington served as the construction manager.
