\nE<\/fancyletter>very work day I walk through EVE. She is Gaudi reborn in earthship, not just in her lovely sinuous curves and embellishment, but because she has stood unfinished for years. There is something beautiful about her abandoned state, but sad too. <\/p>\n

I have moved onto building a can and glass bottle retaining wall for the Simple Survival so I thought it would be nice to showcase the most beautiful use of those materials I have seen on the Sustainable Testing Site. EVE stands for Earthship Village Ecologies, an earthship geared towards housing a community rather than an individual or family. An idyllic world where Academy students grow food in a massive greenhouse on her southern face, joining the old world of the original earthship offices to the east to the classroom to the west. It’s a beautiful vision if they can pull it off, but at the moment other projects have diverted attention, money has been spent elsewhere, she is waiting.\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
