WhiteClouds designed and built this interactive educational diorama for NatureBridge's Climate Solutions Lab at the Golden Gate campus in the Marin Headlands. The display connects a three-dimensional site model with hands-on learning about climate change, the carbon cycle, and possible climate solutions.
A physical site model within the Climate Solutions Lab
The diorama occupies the center of a coordinated educational display. A three-dimensional landscape and built environment extend across the tabletop, while the wall presentation organizes related climate topics around it.
This arrangement gives students both an overall site and closer components to examine. The model is part of the lab experience rather than a stand-alone architectural miniature.
Carbon-cycle and climate-solution ideas made tangible
The project was developed for hands-on exploration of climate change, the carbon cycle, and climate solutions. Small landscape, energy, transportation, and building elements place those ideas within a shared physical setting.
The tabletop contains detailed landscape, energy, transportation, and building scenes. WhiteClouds designed and built the educational display around these connected subjects.
Planning an educational diorama around learning goals
An educational diorama brief should begin with the learning goals, audience age, physical footprint, required scenes, labels, interaction points, accessibility needs, viewing sides, display environment, destination, and opening date. An agreed content hierarchy helps keep the model readable as topics are added.
Interactive requirements should be identified individually so each activity can be reviewed within the complete exhibit.
