Projects :: fundraising - Emergent Structures. Our-two part collaborative fundraiser with Humane Society of Savannah was for the dogs…and the cats. The collaboration began with a call for submission for custom built cat or dog structures made from reclaimed materials. Thanks to the over 20 entrants, there was a lot for our judges to consider, and a lot of great animal structures to offer at the live and silent auction that followed several weeks after the entries were due. On the day of Re:FEST , prizes were awarded for best use of reclaimed materials and most creative entry for both dog houses and cat structures. The auction was held on a beautiful day and evening in conjunction with a sustainable business networking event that saw drum circles, live paintings of more dog houses, one of the original Harlem Globetrotters wowing the crowd, a fire breathing magician, and a line up of local bands that kept the Star Laundry rocking until about 2am!

Architettura sociale: l’orfanatrofio punto di riferimento per la comunità locale. TYIN Tegnestue Architects è uno studio norvegese che dalla sua fondazione, nel 2008, ha realizzato diversi progetti strategici di architettura sociale orientati al miglioramento della qualità della vita in aree povere. L’intervento presso l’orfanatrofio di Safe Haven, situato sul confine tra Thailandia e Birmania e realizzato nell’arco di due settimane nel gennaio 2009, si sviluppa, sia nella fase di progettazione sia nella vera e propria realizzazione , a partire da una continua collaborazione con la comunità locale, nella convinzione che questo tipo di approccio possa costruire un senso di appartenenza e di cura nei confronti dei luoghi e degli edifici.
