A Story about a Boy and his Balloon

Harvard's Graduate School of Design

I work for a lot of catering companies and today we did an event at Harvard University's Graduate School of Design.   This is some of the work of the graduate students, displayed for the commencement.

This is the name of Harvard GSD's cafeteria.  Though I'm pretty sure none of my coworkers understood why it is so great, I thought it was hilarious and had a laugh with one of the Harvard graduates

Enjoy your summer!

Sustainability

I remembered that sustainability was something that we saw important to emphasize with the haybale house, or for any site in that matter. Here's a link for an organization that specializes in making spaces with buildings or no buildings more manageable and environmentally friendly. Check it out, there's some good info on there.
