Abstract

This thesis demonstrated the connection between how children and adults learn about science, as well as the connection between science and technology in modern building design. By looking at the scientific advancements of buildings, the building itself becomes a tool for teaching, giving visitors a hands on experience of the connection between science and everyday life. This will help visitors learn about scientific strategies and give them a better understanding of the environment in which they live. Science is something that has an effect on everyone in the world; from growing food, producing electricity, to living a healthy lifestyle. Everything is connected by some type of scientific advancement or discovery.
