i/thee：Agg Hab，全称Aggregate Habitat（聚合生境），是一个生态居所的原型，通过将纸浆条浇注到地面的洞坑中而形成。该居所长约6米，宽2.4米，高1.4米，建造过程中使用了近200升的胶水和约122.5kg的回收纸张，是非官方记录的世界上最大的、可自我支撑的纸糊结构之一。
i/thee：The Agg Hab, or Aggregate Habitat, is a prototypal eco-dwelling formed by casting papier-mâché strips into sculpted holes in the ground. Measuring over twenty feet long, eight feet wide, and four-and-a-half feet tall, and constructed using nearly 200 liters of glue and 270 pounds of paper, the house stands unofficially as one of the world’s largest, self-supporting, papier-mâché structures.
建造过程从挖掘两个镜像的凸凹洞坑开始，每个洞深1.4米。然后，这些洞被浇上多层有机的、由各种回收纸和无毒胶水组成的纸塑混合物。接下来，模型从各自的洞中被取出，并进行翻转，形成两个相同的球状纸壳，其厚度为4毫米，跨距超过6米。最后，两个纸壳被放置到相邻框架上方，让洞坑的倒模版外壳反转成为一个抛物面状的顶盖，将洞坑结构扣合成为整体。由此，一个1.4米的洞坑变成了一个2.8米高的室内空间。
The process of construction started with the digging of two mirrored, convexo-concave holes, each four-and-a-half feet deep. These holes were then cast with multiple layers of an organic, papier-mâché mixture consisting of various recycled papers and non-toxic glues. Next, the casts were removed from their respective holes and flipped over to form duplicate, bulbous, paper shells, measuring four millimeters thick and spanning over twenty feet. Finally, the shells were each moved on top of the adjacent formwork, letting the inverted form of one hole become a paraboloid cap to the other that encloses the structure. Thus, a four-and-a-half-foot hole becomes a nine-foot interior space.

这些洞与它们各自的外壳一起，创造了一个半地下的房子，其中一系列挖掘形成的凸出和凹陷形式呈现出一种相互关系，创造了多个可栖息的空间。该过程产生的结果是一种源自地球本身的庄重而非凡的体验。设计中没有完美的线条、刻意的形状或颜色。相反，栖息地的形式语言遵循了在自然界中发现的线索：穹顶的轮廓与挖掘出的洞坑轮廓完美吻合；纸壳表面也染上了大量自然的、泥土的色调。
Together, the holes, matched with their respective shells, create a semi-subterranean house in which the negative and positive expressions of a series of excavated forms take on a reciprocal relationship to create multiple habitable spaces. The result of this process is a formal and phenomenal experience derived from the earth itself. There are no perfect lines or manufactured shapes or colors in the design. Instead, the formal language of the habitat follows cues from those found in nature: the contours of the domes perfectly matching those of the excavated dirt; the surface of the paper stained with a plethora of natural, earthen tones.
此外，点缀在结构上的曲线孔洞使光线能够渗入洞穴深处，为装置的内部体验带来活力。当光线从开口处透进来，反射在光滑的纸面上时，产生了一种如同教堂般神圣，但又有些归于尘世的环境氛围。当人们进入这些空间时，会被笼罩在一种原始的体验中——就像孕育在地球母亲的子宫里，或躲藏在海面下的鲸鱼腹中。
Furthermore, the curvilinear apertures dotting the structures allow light to trickle into the depths of the caverns, giving life to the interior experience of the installation. As light filters in through the openings, it reflects off the glossy paper, producing an almost ecclesiastical, yet somehow sublunary, environment. As people move into the spaces, they become enveloped in a primordial experience—as if gestating in the womb of mother earth or stowing away in the belly of a whale just below the surface of the ocean.

这近200升的胶水，好像不太环保，起码不太健康。小知识：三合板/胶粘板散发出来的甲醛来源主要是其中的胶水。
