Since 2000, I have become increasingly interested in the design of the buildings in the Foundation’s Ecovillage. The unusual structures and use of colour catch my attention. While I have no formal training in architecture, I hope this doesn’t preclude my believing the buildings are noteworthy. These photographs are from The Field of Dreams.
