This combination of architecture and ecology was founded by Italian architect Paolo Soleri, who created the Cosanti Foundation in the 1950s. According to their website, "this ecological human habitat . . . [explores] an alternative urban development in the age of economic crisis." This poster is calling on students to enroll in a new course in Paolo Soleri's studio, which will focus on the construction of concrete shells, sculptures and scale models.
