"recycling the past to update the present"

On Tuesday our class presented our research & new ideas to our professor. From this point on, we have to refine our research and really explore the topics at hand. We have started to look at other Habitat homes build around the country by other architecture schools. We also are looking at new technologies & other ways, new and old, to create an energy efficient home. Our class has found a family that may be willing to donate a home that would otherwise be torn down. I like the idea of doing a renovation project or home from reclaimed materials. I am looking forward to a meeting tonight with LaTech's chapter of Habitat for Humanity.
