Sustainable building exhibit:

Vision

Multilevel exhibit with each level being completely unique.

Exterior completely unique on each level giving it a very one-of-a-kind appearance.

Family focused design that can also be presented to companies looking to implement sustainable techniques

Emphasis on flow between exhibits and focus on target audience.

Initial thoughts

Prioritize family exhibits on lower levels to to accomodate family needs

Business/meeting spaces/offices on upper level above exhibit to display all levels and to keep it seperate from the family-focesed exhibit.

Elevators to accomadate high levels that have views into each exhibit

Show how each level is sustainable quantitatively and how the space would look in practice

I don’t want to hide too much of the mechanical details to display how they are at work in the space to give a real idea what all goes into the project

Would like to keep the space relatively exclusive to limit crowds, placing emphasis on making the space not TOO LARGE

Ground Level

Because of how this exhibit is presented I would like the levels to not become to crowded, to ensure that this is the case the ground level will be mostly seating and check in towards the front, with a gift shop and integrated cafe.
