Building with recycled bottles

The second week stars with a little change of the participants, and a shining sun. We created the new wooden structure and the net support, we learn how to use some specific instrument of the site to mix the mortar and we started to prepare to wall to welcome the over 3.000 recycled bottles. This easy technique requires a bit of precision and a growing skill of using and preparing the perfect mixture. We had many different moments of sharing and discussing the evolution of this technique, and we immediately experimented some of that, creating new circular opening in the bottles wall.
