由Dirtworks PC为基恩州立学院重新设计的自然科学大楼包含一个8,500平方英尺的庭院。该设计为“景观促进教育”提供了一次很好的实践机会。设计团队通过不断地努力以捕获新罕布尔什州的景观特征，并提炼出它的形象化标志，同时首次创建户外实验室，加强该学院和公众的地理、植物和生态意识。
Dirtworks在中心庭院景观设计中使用了一些教学元素。铺路图案和材料表现出地层和本地石头类型。并为学习自然岩层提供了机会。精心设计的植物配置代表了新罕布尔什州的植物群，两口井可以检测水质和地下水位。中心庭院不仅与学术课程密切相关，还提供了一个休闲放松的环境。

The advancement of the natural sciences is at the forefront of Keene State College’s academic agenda. The redesign of the natural sciences building enclosed an 8,500 sq. ft. courtyard and provided an opportunity to promote education through the landscape. The design team worked to capture the essential character of the New Hampshire landscape and distill it into an idealized snapshot of the state, creating a model outdoor field laboratory to generate geological, botanical, and ecological awareness for the college and community.
Dirtworks worked closely with the faculty to develop elements for use in teaching. Paving patterns and materials illustrate geologic strata and processes with native stone types. Large boulders, representing rock outcrops, provide opportunities to study natural rock formations. The plant palette was carefully selected to represent native New Hampshire flora, the systematic hierarchy of botany, and botanical evolution. Two wells allow for monitoring water quality and groundwater levels. While closely linked to the academic curriculum, the courtyard also offers a convivial setting for relaxation and inspiration.
