Architect, designer, educator Fritz Haag has been called a contemporary Buckminster Fuller. Haag's recent work is "Animal estates", regional model homes as dwellings for a variety of animals that have been displaced through loss of natural habitat. Other projects include "Edible estates", a book on reclaiming private front lawns into plots reminiscent of World War II victory gardens.

The lecture, part of the 2008 Kacalieff series, is free and open to the public.
