Galapagos: Architecture at the Intersection of Biodiversity and Encroachment in the Ecuadorian GalapagosThe volcanic Galapagos Islands are typically known for Charles Darwins 1835 seminal publication of Origin of Species and his theories of evolution and less for their contemporary development issues. Data shows the islands are expanding rapidly in population and in tourist visitors, yet there are very few projects (on land or water) that examine integrated ecological solutions for development that might enable or promote a sustainable economic model.
