    Abstract
    DESIGN OF A BAKERY IN ALEXANDRIA, VIRGINIA Through the evolution of a baker's practices, we can understand the transitions of matter between bread, body and building. The food soil waste system of the bakery becomes an evolutionary process of recovery, remediation, restoration, replenishment, and reuse.
    General Audience Abstract
    Through the evolution of a baker’s practices, we can understand the transitions of matter between bread, body and building. The food soil waste system of the bakery becomes an evolutionary process of recovery, remediation, restoration, replenishment, and reuse. “There is a crime here that goes beyond denunciation. There is a sorrow here that weeping cannot symbolize. There is a failure here that topples all our success.” (Steinbeck, 2008) Learning from the skies above and ground beneath, I propose a horizon that binds the two in a closed loop system. As a baker combines earth, water, wind, and fire to transform dough into bread, the bakery is designed to knead these same elements together to create a harmonious relationship between man and nature.
