Abstract

Pushing The Envelope is a body of work that responds to the environmental crisis toxic materials have contributed .By reframing the way we design and construct our buildings we can reconcile environment, man and material. I do this by considering the use of agro-based materiality and their combinations ,based on their thermal, structural, aesthetic and phenomological performance within an unconventional setting such as New York City.
