Environmental
Interpretive Centre

This design embodies Haudenosaunee and City of Hamilton joint stewardship as expressed by the Vision and Principles established in 2013:

• The Centre will be a story of the communities that share a history in the Valley, the values that bind our communities together and our path to a resilient future.
• The Centre is a framework that invites many levels of engagement and movement through the site.
• The Centre is truly connected to the site and integrated with the natural patterns it embodies.

• The Centre expresses, through modest and respectful building, our responsibility to the land and those yet to come.
• Spaces are dynamic and adaptable with a responsible use of available resources and materials.
• The small footprint of built space is configured to maximize flexibility and adoptability in the use of indoor and outdoor classrooms and exhibition space.
• The Centre incorporates passive strategies for sustainable design.
