exemplar: built form an extension of the natural landscape.




This is the DPI Queenscliff Centre for marine and freshwater research designed by Lyons Architects. I really like this project because the building is an extension of the landscape, merging the building seamlessly with the site. The green roof acts as a thermal mass. The building accommodates a laboratory as well as teaching and public display areas, so its program is much the same as my design proposal. This exemplar was really helpful for me as I tried to resolve the connection between my green roof and buildings.
