Aligned with What Cheer Flower Farm's mission, the community center prioritizes natural materials. A living facade, featuring a modular system of potted plants, blooms year-round, offering an immersive learning experience tied to natural growth cycles. Placed strategically for sunlight, the south facade houses public spaces, while the north houses private programs. The building's efficiency is enhanced by two wings, each with a dedicated circulation core, ensuring seamless movement within the center.
