Urban Forest

A sustainable visitor center for Georgia Tech that promotes mass timber. The design follows the AIA framework for design excellence. The form is imagined as a cluster of trees, and the aim was to provide the visitors with a similar feeling as if they were under a tree. The waffle structure adds to this by allowing diffused light inside and providing shade.
