Nash Conservatory
description: The Nash Conservatory is a rectangular structure tucked away along the outskirts of a forest. There is a large path leading up to the conservatory, with trees and plants that follow alongside it. The building itself is made mainly of glass, with its walls and ceilings letting in plenty of sunlight. In front of the glass, however, are stone columns. These columns give the building symbolic recognition to the humanities. There is one door on either end of the building. Inside the structure, there is nothing but some rows of chairs placed for special occasions. This building evokes the social aspect of the time, creating spaces where people can meet and interact. The conservatory highlights sight and movement in its structure, adding to its cultural emphasis on the time period.
