Interior Building Decorating of Yale University, School of Forestry and Environmental Studies, Kroon Hall by Hopkins Architects. It establishes a strong architectural identity for the faculty and forms a new centre for the study of  sustainability.

The structure accommodates offices for the faculty, classrooms, a library and study centre, an auditorium and the’ Environment Centre’; a flexible space which will host exhibitions and symposia.

The building is a simple rectangular form placed between the neo-gothic Osbourn Memorial Laboratory and Sage Bowers Hall, sub-dividing the space between them to create two new courtyards, and reintroducing the Yale collegiate urban structure.

The north side of the building is buried into the sloping site, allowing access on the two lower floors, as well as making new connections, knitting together the separate buildings of the faculty.  The west elevation of the building boldly ‘announces’ its presence on Prospect Street, and in contrast the west elevation opens out onto the historic Sachem’s Wood.
