INSIDE | OUT
from Galen's Portfolio

The outdoor classroom incorporates active environmental design to promote learning in an outdoor setting.
During school hours the structure acts as an outdoor class room. During rain events it helps with rain water retention. In the morning and evening it can act as a gathering place for pre or post school activities.

My personal responsibilities on the Design | Build included generating site diagrams, renderings, and the physical execution of the project. This inlcuded surveying for placement of the shaf piers. Prefabricating and installing the wooden deck and walls. Attaching the roof panels to the galvanized steel structure. Thank you to Professor Patrick Peters for managing the project, and the GDB 2019 team for doing the initial design and construction documentation.
