US architecture studio GBBN preserved and expanded a 19th-century home in Erie, Pennsylvania into an educational facility with a glass bridge connection and metal-clad, barn-like structure. A glass bridge is included in the design. The barn form was modernized with the use of a standing seam infinity roof.
