1:20 CONSTRUCTION DETAIL VENTILATION – There are openings in the glasshouse that allow for natural ventilation, as well as rain and birds
SUNLIGHT – When the sun hits the self tinted stained glass, rays of colour penetrate through the building. The self tinting stained glass helps to control the heat in the building. When the sun is strong the glass tints and becomes darker and vice versa.
ACOUSTICS – Rendering is applied out the exterior and interior of the ‘poppies’. This was not only applied to created a natural and curved look, but it also acts as a sound buffer
The water stream that runs through the building recycles rainwater and it provides irrigation for planting. This is done through a pumping system that filters the rainwater as well as preventing the water from being still (this would create algae growth). The curved ‘poppies’ allow an easier rainwater run off into the water stream
