A Notre-Dame greenhouse rebuild is a unique idea being presented to fix the cathedral. Since the damage to the Notre-Dame Cathedral occurred, the French government has been looking to the future and searching for ideas to rebuild Notre-Dame.
As many design ideas are being put forward, Studio NAB envisions the project with sustainability as a central theme. Studio NAB’s design idea features the roof of the cathedral rebuilt as a greenhouse. In addition, the spire of the building will be used to hold bee hives. Studio NAB’s design would use the greenhouse to bolster education on urban farming by hosting events for children. Studio NAB’s idea of a Notre-Dame greenhouse rebuild is one of the many circulating ideas.
