Re: [Origami] buildings from paper? Shigeru Ban on Emergency shelters made from paper

Karen Reeds is interested in information about "houses, shelters, buildings,
construction methods... using paper as the primary material" for a housing
project for homeless people in Trenton, as part of ScienceMentors 1:1 in
Trenton, New Jersey.

Karen, in a couple of occasions members have mentioned the project
Cardborigami through the mailing list. Might that be what you remember
seeing? Here's the projects URL: http://www.cardborigami.org/

Papercrete/Fibercrete - locally in New Mexico we have quite a few homes built 
by papercrete expert, Mike McCain.  A few resources that may be of interest
