Project Name: blood bricks Project managers/designers: Jack Munroe Web link: -sever couldn't be found for Munroes website, however, I found the article on Gizmodo to be fairly insightful-- http://gizmodo.com/5963188/are-blood-bricks-the-future-of-building Description: A architect in London was looking into alternatives to concrete and through his research came up with blood bricks. A 50/50 mixture of blood (with some preservative). Munroe combined the mixture in a bucket before placing it in a mould and baking for 1hr at 70*c. This creates a waterproof, resilient material that's sturdy enough to create a structure. Monroe intends to build several houses in Egypt with his new method using sand and blood from the local area as a cheaper alternative to concrete.
