The Museum of Tomorrow is a science museum in the city of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The currently most-visited museum in Brazil has been selected for its unique design, use of local resources and innovative exhibits. The Museum’s sustainable architecture reflects the function of the museum and is constructed primarily from local materials. We will start with understanding what sustainable design is and identify the AIA COTE measures of sustainable design. For this course, we will use the AIA measures of sustainable design as a lens so to speak to identify, explore and understand some of the strategies employed to achieve the sustainability goals set out for the project.
