Wetland Discovery Point, the Utah Botanical Center’s (UBC) newest teaching space, has been awarded Platinum LEED certification. The roof functions as both a rainwater collector and a tool to provide shade or allow winter sunlight into the building to warm it and provide abundant natural light. Harvested precipitation is stored in a cistern and used to irrigate part of the landscape and to flush low flow toilets. Much of the power used in the building will be solar generated, including solar-heated water which flows through the building’s heating system. An extensive use of windows connects visitors with the landscape and improves ventilation.
