Westcott House

The Westcott House Foundation, in partnership with two major universities, the STEM Academy of Springfield High School, designers, artists and the regional community, will create Solar@Westcott Experiential Design Lab. The selected site will be transformed into a community garden and public green space showcasing the Solar Decathlon House, designed by architecture students of The Ohio State University for an international competition organized by the U.S. Department of Energy. Through a series of design-education activities, the museum audience will engage in dialogue about sustainable practices and gain a better understanding of the opportunities for community improvement presented by creative and innovative design.
