Wow! It sounds like an interesting and viable option while being eco friendly. I'll be interested to see how this type of technology progresses
Yes, Christi. It IS indeed a very interesting trend to keep your eyes peeled for. I wish Rachel's ideas become a reality of our future. Sustainable architecture should be the way to go if we want to stop things from getting out of hand.
