    Architect and designer Jenny Sabin has created an environmentally sustainable greenhouse for the 21st century, now installed in the American Philosophical Society’s (APS) garden. Sabin, recognized for her work “at the forefront of a new direction in architectural practice that applies insights and theories from biology and mathematics to the design of material structures” will discuss the creation of this cutting-edge, pre-fab structure inspired by historic greenhouses in the APS Museum’s curated exhibition.
