Nature provides the environment for all lives including people, and allow us to
compete and survive. Most would agree that, for healthier and happier lives,
people should know more about nature and the natural environment. The natural
world as we know it is declining. And irresponsible human activities should be
stopped, or at least restricted. Although there are people and organizations that
strive to protect the natural environment, the majoritys knowledge about nature is
limited. Through the study of natural environments and architectural precedence,
this project proposes to develop a design of a space in order for people to
intimately experience the natural environment. By experiencing nature closely,
people may gain more knowledge and understanding about the natural world. And
hopefully, because of this experience, they will have more respect for the
surrounding natural environment.
