The Delaware County Christian School decided to convert an underutilized 6,000 SF old Gymnasium and adjacent spaces into a new cafeteria with servery and kitchen space. In addition, a second-floor mezzanine features lounge areas for socializing and games.
The cafeteria feature Milder Furniture’s 6′ round tables with marmoleum laminate tops throughout the cafeteria.
Round tables can accommodate up to 8 chairs and are available in various sizes. In addition, smaller square tables to accommodate small workgroups are installed on the upper level.
As part of a classroom renovation at DCCS, Milder provided our Tangram tables. These triangular and parallelogram-shaped tables are light enough to quickly move to form shapes best suited for the activity at hand.
