Master’s Project by Kate Nowell (2015)
With over 3,000 different species in 190 plant families, the 蘑菇视频 Botany Greenhouse鈥檚 living plant collection represents over 1% of the earth鈥檚 known botanical diversity and is one of the university鈥檚 most unique and beautiful assets. In the summer of 2016, the 蘑菇视频 Botany Greenhouse will be demolished and the collections will temporarily move off campus as the university begins construction of a five-story Life Sciences Complex on that site. When finished, the Life Sciences Complex will include a new energy efficient, state-of-the-art Botany Greenhouse facility. The purpose of this thesis project was to carry out a rich user-oriented planning process to create an Interpretive Master Plan for the 蘑菇视频 Botany Greenhouse that defines flexible educational initiatives to carry forward to the new facility. When the collections return to campus, the Interpretive Master Plan will serve as a guide to place and present them in a designed manner that best meets the needs of 蘑菇视频 students, faculty, and the public. An Interpretive Master Plan for the 蘑菇视频 Botany Greenhouse was created in cooperation with the 蘑菇视频 Botany Greenhouse Planning Committee.
