Before Building

Led by Katie MacDonald and Kyle Schumann, the Before Building Laboratory at the University of Virginia reconsiders construction standards and materials in light of new lifecycle questions and overextended supply chains. We pioneer new material assemblies, with the aim of creating building material systems that sequester carbon and reduce construction’s contribution to the environmental crisis. Current projects focus on rapidly renewable biomaterials, including wood, bamboo, grass, various invasive plant species, and hemp.
