From Field to Form is a series of events exploring the possibilities, life cycles and architectural implications of plant- and earth-based materials
Engineer Steve Webb and stonemason Pierre Bidaud began a partnership in 2009 to radically rethink the possibilities of stone in contemporary construction. Their research demonstrates that structural stone can substantially reduce embodied energy in built form, and their collaborations with a variety of architects have produced striking buildings that recover and amplify the potential of stone as a primary building material.
In “From Field to Form: Stone,” Webb and Bidaud discussed their evolving research and showed examples of their work.
