Ghost

In june of 2006 I was part of a two week design-build workshop in Nova Scotia, Canada.
One week design, one week construction. This was a great relief after 7 years of academic work. Yes, 7. I studied 4 years of architecture in Brasil and then 3 in the US. Being out on site, tools in hand, was a great way of putting to practice some of the theory I've learned. This year, the Ghost Lab is putting together a conference instead of a building workshop. I guess they need a break too. But this sounds very interesting. Take a look at their invite link below for more information. Click on my personal link for more images on the year I was there.
