Video Title:
Monarch Sanctuary | Nature–Design Triennial
Description:
The population of the beloved monarch butterfly has drastically depleted due to susceptibility to agricultural pesticides, temperature changes, and land development. Terreform ONE’s proposed 30,000-square-foot sanctuary is a vertical meadow behind a glass façade with highly regulated temperature and humidity. The model shows how the façade can provide a temporary habitat for wild monarchs. On view in "Nature–Cooper Hewitt Design Triennial" through January 2020.
