Architecture and processes of experimentation with natural materials

Catarina Pinto - Terrapalha

The presentation will focus on the design practice and research carried out by the Terrapalha studio over the past 15 years in the use of natural, local, and low-impact construction materials such as natural fibers, earth, wood, stone, and lime.
More specifically, projects involving straw construction techniques, earth plaster, prefabricated straw panels, traditional building rehabilitation, training, and exchanges within the European network of straw construction.
