Abstract/Contents: | Briefly profiles the visitor center at Zion National Park in Utah. States that "the use of native stone and wood, along with a roof pitch in line with the background topography, allows the building to blend into its site." Also mentions that "daylighting furnishes the lighting for 80 percent of the building's interior spaces, and photovoltaics provide 30 percent of its power requirements." |
