CLEAN ENERGY PARKat the University of Texas Austin, Texas 2009

The fingered-layout of 3 buildings facilitate the strategic movement of people and breezes across the park. As the earth falls away, additional day lighting becomes possible when desirable, and views of the prairie unfold from within the offi ce spaces. Operable shade structures hover above the facility, allowing for adaptable light conditions.
