Shonto Youth Center

This new 11,000 SF facility was designed to represent a new ‘Self-Sufficient’ Navajo Nation. Designed in rammed earth construction, the building has many sustainable design features including: Solar Walls to provide auxiliary warm air to HVAC equipment; Solar Panels to provide all lighting power; occupancy light, daylighting, and HVAC sensors; EMS; and R-42 insulation. The building will be home for the new Fitness Center, Library, and Community Center.
