Hopefully some of these photos will give everyone a better idea about the vague posts I have been leaving over the past few months.

These were taken during the EPA p3 exhibition last weekend in Washington DC. We were judged over two days and were selected (along with 5 other entries) to move forward with our project.

Our proposal for Phase II: construct the first phase of the project as a demonstration model in Norris, TN next spring as a Design|build studio.
