Natural Building Colloquium—East

Bath, NY

JUN-JULY.2004

As I put this page together I realized that I have no photos of this timber frame raising from far away, showing the whole structure. In retrospect I suppose I was more excited by the people, who themselves were excited. This really is more about people than a building—though it is one of the most beautiful buildings I've seen and certainly the nicest I've worked on.

There are more black and white photos from the Colloquium on a separate page.
