Form Follows Climate
Architecture and design shaped by climate conditions and environmental responsiveness rather than aesthetic or functional conventions alone.
Following The Mound: A Hill That Teaches Children to Read the Climate
An inhabitable artificial topography merges green infrastructure with child-centered play across a temperate-climate learning environment.
Form Follows Climate: Sanctuary, a Daycare Shaped Entirely by Climatic Logic
A timber-framed daycare facility in a dense urban plot uses sawtooth roofs, clay plaster, and wool insulation to achieve near self-sufficiency.
Form Follows Climate
My design uses three similarly shaped buildings graduated in height and differentiated by green play areas. A wooden wall serving as a physical barrier to the street clearly defines the buildings as one entity. The double pitched roof resembles a family home rendering the design welcoming towards children while making use of its climatic advantages.
The Expandables: A Childcare Center That Breathes with the Climate
Expandable panels, wind-driven ventilation, and age-zoned planning let this arid-climate kindergarten shift between open and closed configurations.
