PHIVE SHP: Nature in Architecture Full Day Workshop(Ages 5 - 9)

What if buildings grew like flowers? Our creators are exploring that idea - one sketch, one petal, one model at a time.

An inspiring full-day program for creative & imaginative thinkers, combining Architecture and Art. For future botanists and budding architects, this workshop blends nature, imagination and hands-on making for a magical design experience turning petals into patterns and patterns into buildings. Participants explore how flowers and plant life can shape architectural thinking and creative design, and how the shapes in nature can inspire the spaces of tomorrow.
