the Garden House

Greer, SC

The garden house is a small accessory building, designed as greenhouse for starting seeds for a community garden. The design is created to blend seamlessly with the classical residence while remaining distinct from the existing context.

The design uses polycarbonate panels to allow natural light to illuminate the seedlings during the initial stages of their growth. Other features include a growing bench, operable windows, plenty of storage/shelf space and a utility sink to clean off trays after their use.
