Workshop 1: Building with Excavated Earth + Adobe Brick Making
Unleash your creativity and dive into the world of sustainable building! In this hands-on workshop, you’ll learn how to harness the power of clay soil to create strong, eco-friendly structures. Discover how to test and analyze different types of earth, mix the perfect blend for various techniques, and incorporate natural fibers for added strength.
Then, get ready to roll up your sleeves and dance with your feet as you create your own Adobe blocks! You’ll learn the traditional process of crafting earth blocks, testing different proportions, and experiencing the joy of mixing with your own two hands. By the end of the workshop, you'll have a deeper understanding of these ancient yet powerful building methods and the skills to apply them in your own projects!
