Tucson PDSD staff have been working hard to roll out the new middle housing policies that were approved by mayor and council at the end of last year, so it was fun to share small developer projects and perspectives w them from other communities that have also been creating middle housing reform.

Last Saturday I had the distinct pleasure of leading a workshop on and light frame construction at The School of Architecture at their campus at the Cattletrack arts compound in Scottsdale. The workshop was part of their high performance natural building materials class. We installed bales in a couple wall sections using the BOEBS (bales on end between studs) method, and demoed splitting bales and got to play with mud plasters at the end of the day.
