Äerdschëff · The building
Imagine…
A hand presents a map of the project.
What if we started with what we really need?
A place to live, learn and experiment together. Imagine other ways of building and inhabiting.
Work with what is here.
On the building site, a participant holds a shovel behind a wheelbarrow.
What is already here can become a resource.
Earth, reused materials, tools and available knowledge. Observe what we have, then invent with it.
Build together.
A group gathered in front of Äerdschëff.
A building site also helps a community grow.
Learn by doing. Share knowledge, tasks and decisions. Build a place, and build relationships.
Work with the sun, water, living systems and planetary boundaries.
The Äerdschëff building and its greenhouse.
A building never works alone.
Explore how light, heat, water and materials move through this place. Understand construction choices, what they enable and the maintenance they require.
