Stephen Budner an alum shared with me some pictures of his time at Arcosanti in the 70s. Ill be posting them up here.
Will Holman and Mario Andres Botero Giraldo left on thursday. We had a small party for their leaving on wed. Both are architecture students. Mario from Columbia worked in Planning and Will from Baltimore worked with me in Construction. Will will be remembered for his sharp wit 70s style mirrored sunglasses and unique dedication to experimenting with innovative approaches to making furniture…
I had the chance to do some work with blocks (CONSTRUCTION – CERAMICS KILN AREA) this last week. We completed a enclosure of the ceramics area using textured cement blocks. Every second course had a bond beam to make it possible to stack the blocks without grouting them together. We did the final pour on friday and I finished the concrete surface on the top.
