Architectural Design - Eco Village

                    For energy to be “green” it needs to be made from a natural resource that is replaceable. For example, solar panels use sunlight and convert it into electricity that we can use in a varity of ways.

                    At Alexander W. Dreyfoos School of the Arts, the architecture students are putting their knowledge to the test to create an Eco-Village with eight energy efficient projects. Our structures include a garden, tree house, mirco-cabin, windmill, two straw bale houses, adobe, and solar panels.
