Botanical Research Center
"Where science grows into the landscape"
About
A cascading research facility built into a hillside, each level stepping down with its own living roof of native grasses and wildflowers. Glass walls reveal state-of-the-art laboratories and greenhouse spaces within. The architecture itself functions as a botanical specimen—monitored, studied, alive.
