This project is located in Marlo, coastal Eastern Victoria.

This school competition entry aimed to provide a facility to immerse students and increase their awareness of human impact on the environment. The design emphasises propagation as a means of restoring the landscape, thus empowering students with the education of environmental solutions.

Providing uninterrupted northern aspect and natural light to every habitable room provided both good passive solar design and an uplifting learning and living environment.
