RuralStudio Meets A.S.C. and Caracol | Biennale Architettura 2016
Channel: Rebiennale
Date: 06/06/2016

Auburn University Rural Studio extends local, long-term architectural approach to installation at 2016 Venice Biennale.
Video Chapters:

- Why did we build a firehouse for our community in Newbern, Alabama?  [0:00]

- Why are we building our own farm in Newbern Alabama? [04:25]

- Why did we build a Boys and Girls Club for the town of Greensboro, Alamaba? [08:34]

- Why are we designing a home that is affordable, for rural Alabama? [13:50]

- Why did we build this installation for Venice? [17:09]

The Rural Studio faculty team who designed and built the installation were admittedly less familiar with Venice, and also weary of participating in an event that can prioritize international over local interests. So they turned to locals who could help, and who Rural Studio could, in turn, help fight the battles for Venice.
