- 5th Annual National Sustainable Design Expo Begins On National
Mall
WASHINGTON - APRIL 20: Parker Jones (L) and John Kenney of University of Wisconsin in Madison, Wisconsin, check the set up of their rain water catchment system exhibit during the 2009 National Sustainable Design Expo at the National Mall April 20, 2009 in Washington, DC. Both students have developed a rain water catchment system to collect and utilize rainwater for irrigation in order to minimize groundwater depletion and contamination. The project also took part in the P3 Awards competition which will provide the winners with additional funding to further develop and implement the award-winning technologies.

The Loblolly House, located on Taylors Island, Maryland, was
designed by KieranTimberlake of Philadelphia for partner Stephen
Kieran. The house was fabricated off-site, trucked in, and assembled
in six weeks. It is made from sustainable materials and is highly
energy-efficient.
