Four possible levels of certification &ndash; certified, silver, gold and platinum &#8212; encourage sustainable design.<br \/>\n\t<br \/>\n\tWill Dann, the principal architect with the firm Hacker in Portland, says Discovery Hall was one of the most exciting projects he&rsquo;s worked on.<br \/>\n\t<br \/>\n\t&ldquo;It comes from the enthusiasm and sense of inquiry that the faculty and students that were on the committee brought to the project,&rdquo; he said. &ldquo;足彩app哪个是正规的y made the idea of science-on-display come to life.&rdquo;<br \/>\n\t<br \/>\n\tMany of the sustainability features are out in the open so students can experience them directly, Dann said.<br \/>\n\t<br \/>\n\t足彩app哪个是正规的 $68 million Discovery Hall opened for classes in the fall of 2014.

Plumbing fixtures are low-flow.<br \/>\n\t<br \/>\n\tBeside the building, stormwater runoff captures one&#039;s attention as it flows to the wetlands. Landscaping uses native plants or plants that don&rsquo;t require much additional watering.<br \/>\n\t<br \/>\n\tIn addition to the architect Hacker, partners with UW Bothell on Discovery Hall include the contractor Lease Crutcher Lewis, and landscape architect Walker Macy.<\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/discovery-hall-2-.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-28714\"><\/figure>\n<p>\n\tArchitectural graphic of LEED features of Discovery Hall:<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/discovery-hall-diagram.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-28715\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\n\tJust in time for Earth Day, University of Washington Bothell&rsquo;s <a href=\"\/about\/construction\/discoveryhall\">Discovery Hall<\/a> has achieved a LEED Gold rating for its environmental and sustainable features.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_is_archived":false,"_archived_contact_email":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[202,211],"tags":[213],"school":[421],"class_list":["post-2566","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-campus-news","category-honors-and-awards","tag-sustainability","school-school-of-stem"],"acf":{"related_links":{"toggle_visibility":false,"link_1":null,"link_2":null,"link_3":null,"link_4":null,"link_5":null},"highlight_box":{"toggle_visibility":false,"title":"","content":"","button":null,"button_style":"angled-purple-button","button_screen_reader_text":""},"contact_type_1":{"toggle_visibility":true,"contact_title":"","email":"","phone":"","box":"","address_line_1":"","address_line_2":"","location":""},"contact_type_2":{"toggle_visibility":false,"contact_title":"","email":"","phone":"","box":"","address_line_1":"","address_line_2":"","location":""},"social_media":{"toggle_visibility":false,"facebook_url":"","instagram_url":"","linkedin_url":"","twitter_url":"","youtube_url":""},"blog_archive_sidebar_visibility":false},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.0 -
