Paolo Soleri’s concept of “Arcology”— architecture coherent with ecology— is the basis for his ongoing building project Arcosanti in central Arizona. Since 1970, this prototype town has demonstrated Soleri’s interests in minimizing the use of energy, raw materials, and land while allowing for an interaction with the natural environment.The National Building Museum provides biographies of speakers, program participants, and exhibition subjects.
