Kennedy & Violich Architecture - 1 views

    I saw Sheila Kennedy and Frano Violich give a presentation at the Kalil awards last week. Amazing work in interactive architecture. Be sure to check out their "Portable Light Project" (under Projects/Intelligent Infrastructure). Renewable power and light source that can be sewn into traditional garments.
