Cape Breton Greenhouse
The owner of this property
purchased the site to preserve communal hiking trails from development into a quarry.
The greenhouse and landscape are designed to support the owner’s home and
medical practice. The building creates a dialogue between the sun and earth,
optimizing solar orientation for the greenhouse and garden while tapping the
earth for both passive root cellar cooling as well as winter heating.
