Volunteer vacation in Cuzco, Peru

Steven Learner Studio
project Globe Aware
site Cuzco, Peru
completion December 2010

"I'd been looking for ways to contribute beyond designing residences and galleries in New York so I took the opportunity provided by our office's Christmas-New Year's holiday to volunteer at a home where children from surrounding villages board during the school year. My team of five quickly learned to work without extensive planning, or demand materials, or task specific tools. Just purchasing polycarbonate for the greenhouse, where vegetables for the kids' will be grown, became an adventure that Involved visits to three lumberyards, hiring a pickup truck and being stopped by the Peruvian police as I bounced around In back"
