This urban igloo was made from cardboard by a team of UVA students for a design competition held at the home of architecture prof John Quale on September 12. The rules: All structures had to be made from recycled, reclaimed or natural materials; materials had to be recycled after the project; and each structure could take no more than two hours to assemble and cost no more than $10. The winning design involved plastic grocery bags for a ceiling. For more images from the competition, visit C-VILLE’s “Green Scene” blog. |
