Features

The undulating wave of the roof line blends with the vegetation of the green roof to complete the natural aesthetic of the building. Green roofs are a great way to blend the natural environment with the built environment. Bridging that gap restores our connection to nature and triggers or biophilic response. People that are connected to nature are happier, healthier, and have lower stress levels. The students at this elementary school will get first-hand experience with the science of biophilia.
