Gallery: Re:Vision Architecture Merges...

 
The new building is naturally cooled by upper awning windows, which automatically open at night to allow cool air to flush the space.

The 150 year old Quaker house, now a small museum, needed structural improvements and a new place for gatherings. The design takes advantage of the work by inserting underfloor heating tubing into the old building. New, but historically accurate, windows also help with efficiency.
