Semans-Griswold Environmental Hall
Chestertown, MD
Semans-Griswold Environmental Hall was built to achieve Living Building Challenge Certification. Not only does this certification require the use of sustainable building materials and thoughtful decision making around the natural environment, but it also requires that the building produces at least 105% of the energy that it will use. Glulam trusses and laminated wood decking help to create an environment where students can interact and learn while being surrounded by natural materials.
