Nature Inspired Greenhouse School

Growing up in Buffalo, school felt like being stuck indoors during the few precious months of good weather, which is why I designed the greenhouse school I always wished I could have attended! Forget stuffy classrooms; imagine a learning environment where biology lessons happen amongst thriving vegetable gardens, and the school cafeteria serves the healthy foods students themselves have cultivated. In this architectural walkthrough, I'll show you how this concept integrates large, light-filled greenhouses directly into the school's design, creating a hands-on, immersive educational experience focused on gardening, nutrition, and a deeper connection with nature – all while still meeting curriculum requirements, even through a Buffalo winter. This isn't just a school; it's a living, breathing learning lab that fosters a love for the environment and healthy living. Take a look and tell me if this is the kind of school you wish you went to as well!
