Terre battue: Dirt est vert

Quand il parle de la construction d'une maison de la saleté dans un quartier historique de Roanoke, architecte Gregg Lewis commence à regarder un peu maniaque.

Normalement réservé et soigné, ses mains commencent à l'aider à s'exprimer. Les possibilités d'anticipation et de la percolation en lui, et il commence à ressembler à quelque chose comme un savant fou regarde dans un tube à essai d'attente pour un monde-secouer la réaction chimique.

La maison de la saleté - il est effectivement mis en place un environnement technique de construction appelée "terre battue" - est une partie d'une plus grande expérience de Lewis, 41, a été présider depuis avril 2004.

Lewis et son cabinet, SmithLewis Architecture, orchestré l'accueil C2C concours comme un moyen de promouvoir la construction écologique concepts défendus par l'architecte de renommée internationale William McDonough dans un livre qu'il a co-écrit, "Cradle to Cradle: Remaking the Way Nous Make Things." L'idée est d'aller vers des matériaux de construction et de méthodes qui font moins de dommages à l'environnement, telles que l'énergie solaire et de synthèse et de matériaux recyclés.
