Unity College, a small, rural liberal arts college focusing on environmental studies, is developing SonnenHaus Village, a cluster of 3 residence halls constructed to the Passive House standard. TerraHaus is Phase I of the SonnenHaus Village project. AKD’s Site Plan and landscape design for SonnenHaus Village and TerraHaus initiate a campus wide shift towards an ecologically based framework for development at the College, a framework characterized by combining the principles of landscape ecology with the functional requirements of a working landscape that supports the college’s Sustainability Science curriculum.
