The first week starts with fresh and soft rain, giving the possibility to work without the hot weather conditions of this season. This lucky humidity, gave the best condition to use the local soil to fill the bags. The beginning of the workshop was a bit heavy and physical job, but we had a lot of talking breaks to go deeper in the earthbags technique to explore all the possible potential of this simple and efficient way of building.

We started already the first building phase with the earthbags technique. This was a great start to build the ludic center of CASA CHIARAVALLE. Great Team work!

Organized by ARCò, from June 4th until June 29th 2018, Design and Build with Økm (Local and Recycled Materials) in a real context, prototyping a 1:1 object for the development of new activities of the local community

Finally here we are.. the workshop #6 Design and Build with 0km (local and recycled materials) of the LearnBi0n network has its own location, Casa Chiaravalle in Milan.

The first inspection was carried out and we are ready to transform this garden into a physical space for comparison about sustainability and to create a space for new functions for the development of the local community that will host us.
