more press

FIU Magazine published a really nice article on tin box, including our critique of the project. In a nutshell, we don't think freestanding single-family houses are the best use for land, and we strongly advocate denser development. Great thanks to FIU Magazine for letting us get the word out.

And thanks, too, to Inspicio, which published our short pecha kucka presentation about the house over the summer.

Great thanks to my FIU colleague, Ray Elman, editor of Inspicio e-Magazine, for featuring tin box. The illustrated essay is based on a pecha kucha presentation we created on the house. It offers a quick overview of our attitudes toward sustainability and community.

Students in the Broadcast Media program of FIU's School of Communication + Journalism came to tin box a few weeks ago to shoot footage for a class project on renewable energy. Their finished project is pretty good. Forgive the small video - Blogger restricts file sizes, so the video here is a little small.

The two students leading the project–Erica Santiago and Diana Guarnizo–are also producing a longer video that explores larger questions of social and ecological sustainability at tin box. We look forward to posting that later this spring!
