Exterior perspective From the park entrance, the greenhouse appears as a modular grid woven with trees and light, signaling both ecological function and public accessibility.

Form Diagram From initial layout strategy → environmental zoning → structural layering → final experiential composition.

Exterior Perspective Cold Zone : Tall evergreens and shaded canopies establish a cooler microclimate, evoking fall and winter stillness.
Hot Zone : Dense greenery and strong sunlight amplify heat and humidity, recreating the intensity of midsummer landscapes.
Warm Zone : Sunlit gardens with vibrant flowering species evoke spring and summer, embodying growth, bloom, and warmth.

Exploded Axonometric The structural breakdown reveals skylights, horizontal roof grids, vertical supports, and translucent frames.
These layered systems filter light, control climate, and establish a rhythmic architectural language.

Floor Plan A centralized courtyard anchors three seasonal wings, organizing circulation and framing views of hot, warm, and cold plant zones.

Architectural Visualizations

Cycle of Seasons is a greenhouse in Liberty State Park, designed as a dynamic environment where contrasting atmospheres coexist within a single, cohesive structure. The project creates three distinct climatic zones — hot, warm, and cold — each cultivating different plants and offering unique spatial experiences.
The overall pattern of the greenhouse is organized according to the path of the sun and seasonal cycles, turning architecture into both a climatic device and a symbolic representation of time. Offices and administrative spaces are integrated into the greenhouse through a secondary structural frame, which filters daylight to create varied and inspiring lighting conditions for workers throughout the day.
By weaving together ecological systems, architectural rhythm, and seasonal change, Eden transforms Liberty State Park into a living exhibition — a civic greenhouse that embodies both environmental awareness and cultural experience.
