Greenwich Academy’s new Upper School and Library unifies the campus and enhances the site’s natural beauty. The site’s topographical complexity was used to join the campus’s upper and lower levels through the medium of a building. Light is central to the design; the project featured a collaboration with space and light artist James Turrell.
