Together with Mexican Studio Juíñi we work on a breakthrough in using earth as a natural building material superseding concrete as a construction material.

@ebb_boards Eure Expertise von Lehm ist beeindruckend, wunderschön, eure Liebe zu dem Baustoff ist es auch. Wir denken, dass gerade weil Lehm und alle natürlichen Bauweisen so relevant sind, ein Kontrast zu Beton wirkungsvoll ist. Der Klimakrise ist ja auch eine Krise der Materialität.
Beton ist ein zerstörerischer Baustoff, seine Herstellung frisst Unmengen an Energie und Sand. Er macht unsere Welt von Sekunden zu Sekunde grauer. Für uns ist Lehm der neue Beton! https://t.co/CJClubd6Pw
But is it cheaper?
Why should construction that is better for the climate, healthier, regenerative and directly recyclable be immediately cheaper than construction that is based on cheap fossil energy, carelessly extracted from nature on an industrial, global marginal cost scale?
@ebb_boards Lieber Christian, Lehm liegt quasi uns zu Füßen, als Erde, es lässt sich in Kreisläufe zurückführen, ist wiederverwendbar, liegt in unserer Menschheitsgeschichte und ist dank innovativer Methoden stabiler. Wir denken, es lohnt sich, Lehm als Alternative zu Beton zu sehen, ja.
The Hittisau Women's Museum houses a new building by Anna Heringer, made of earth and natural materials. A "Room for Birth and Senses" where we can rethink in a holistic way the first space that welcomes us. https://t.co/ivGMXMqKjm
Xinatli, an eco-conscious museum, built in the form of a reinvented stepped pyramid, will be located on an expanse of cleared forest, previously stripped bare by illegal logging.https://t.co/G5wvCzXUBA
Xinatli's founder, Mexican art collector Fernanda Raíz: "Until now, museums have usually been a space where power is put on display. A 21st century museum should not be a showcase for power but instead a place that advocates for greater equity: in ecology, in art and in society."
