Didactic work
In this page we offer contents for educational purpose, as a result of practical experiences and researches carried out during our travels.
We will endeavour to offer this free content on a regular basis, with the aim of encouraging these sustainable techniques to enable a transition from a conventional construction to one with low environmental footprint.
Soon we will also organize workshops to deepen these constructive systems.
