"During a workshop in Oregon, I learned about a variety of different natural building techniques, including natural plastering with natural dyes that we applied with our hands. This workshop helped me reconnect with the playful spirit of architecture school that I loved so much. A strong sense of belonging is created by handcrafting these beautiful structures in collaboration with community and nature." - Claire Shafer
