Scalable Equals Sustainable: The Infrastructural Imperative of Earthen Construction

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: Building with earth seems a sensible ambition in our troubled climatic times. A fundamental problem, though, is being able to make larger, more complex structures from earth without jettisoning its unique sustainable and artisan qualities at the domestic and sub‐domestic scales. Architecture and robotics specialist and co‐founder of EZCT Architecture & Design Research Jelle Feringa considers the concepts and issues involved.
