Summer Architecture Adventure in Ghana!
What would happen if you bring together a team of recent graduates and students of architecture, design and volunteers from Western culture to collaborate and build a modern mud house in a village in Ghana using earth and local materials? Why not join this workshop and find out?

-Immerse in the Ashanti culture and the built environment to construct a sample component of an arts village using local materials and infrastructure.
-Experience how to build with earth from foundation to roofing. Design, budget, site-specific issues, and construction strategy are all debated in an effort to uncover the mechanics of building with earth and other local materials. This workshop will be the best way to keep you busy this summer. Here’s a link to choose a workshop: http://nkaprojects.boards.net/thread/31/prototyping-usability-testing
