Abstract

The article focuses on the use of building envelopes in the promotion of green architecture in schools. Barry Svigals, managing partner, and Jay Brotman, partner of Svigals+Partners, discuss the dynamics of current school design. They talk about returning to some of the past concepts of schools, their recommendation of masonry construction, and the reflective roofs as a good environmental option.
