Steve sez, “Just been reading Shadow Of The Mothaship from Cory’s book A Place So Foreign, and was struck by the conceptual similarity between his foam houses of the future and the polystyrene houses being planned for Afghanistan.”

“That is the challenge,” he said, “people have to accept it, that it’s absolutely safe to live in a Styrofoam house, safer than in an adobe house.

“Let them feel it. Let them dance on it. Let them see that it is strong.”
