The project rose from an interest in structures designed to respond to their environments over time, instigating a process of human engagement rather than a finished and static object. The project draws from the work of Bill Zeedyk and Ronald Rael, and will hopefully continue to evolve in the future. Speaker: Paul Ross, AWF Board Member Paul grew up in southern California, often roaming the western U.S. on river trips and his parents’ geologic mapping field camps. He attended Columbia University in New York City, followed by the University of New Mexico, earning a Bachelors in Sustainable Development and a Masters in Landscape Architecture, respectively. Paul has explored interests in agroecology, soil health, wild food, athletics, and simple technologies through work as a farmer, trail guide, ski instructor, educator, and student. He currently lives in Albuquerque, working with Rio Grande Return and Cuidad Soil and Water Conservation District.
