Design entry #669671264 BIO+ARTS Earth Construction Studio
The project emerges from the need to build a unit of an artisanal village for unemployed young people in Africa, emphasizing the use of local resources, and understanding that the characteristics of the project should be appropriate for several localities and solve shared needs. The way is autonomy.
Bio+arts studio is thought to be builded in a period of 45-50 days by 3 people and it is made with timber framing, bahareque technique, and a plinth of quarry stone to insulate mud walls from direct erosion of water and soil moisture. Simple doors and windows are also manufactured in the same workshops, made of recovery timber. On the inside, walls are sculpted by hand accommodating necessary furniture such as bookshelves and seats. On the outside, a trencadis´ roof to protect the building from tropical rainfall, and thus allowing an alternative to commonly used zinc roofs.
The project intents to open the possibility for the extended use of tiles as a new form of roofing, making possible local production of the insume units for insulating constructions and promoting communities´ autonomy.
