SEEDS Community Center
South Eastern Efforts Developing Sustainable Spaces (SEEDS) is a community center, garden, and teaching kitchen located in Durham. This 7,000-square-foot building includes event space, a full teaching kitchen with walk-in cooler, office space, and a conference room. The project also includes exterior amenities including gardens and a back patio overlooking the scenic view that makes the space an ideal location for community event rentals.
This project features many sustainable design elements such as a reflective white roof to reduce the temperature inside, high performance window glazing to reduce interior heat loss, and many other energy-saving design features were installed in a way that co-mingled with the design aesthetic that SEEDs was looking to provide to their community.
