The Rural Studio

‘Sambo’ Mockbee was the US Architect behind the Rural Studio, a programme at Auburn University, Alabama, teaching architecture students both the social responsibilities of their profession, and design and construction methods that can move community architecture into the 21st century and beyond. The studies are put to practice in the building of innovative homes and shared spaces in the economically poor Hale County, AL, where they continuously prove the potential of architecture to improve the quality of the inhabitants’ lives and unite previously conflicting social groups.

Garbage Warrior

Maverick eco-architect Michael Reynolds was thrown out of the American Architectural Association after various of his building experiments went wrong. Now having honed his practice, he and his teams construct futuristically beautiful ‘Earthships’ in the New Mexico desert and in disaster-relief zones; 100% self-sustaining, adobe-style houses that generate their own energy through Reynolds’ visionary methods of design using old tyres, beer bottles and clay, and whatever else inspiring is lying around. This is a portrait of a man who knows how we should live – and will make you want to join him. UK 2007 Dir. Oliver Hodge 86 min.
