Poziv za Touraterre radionicu
Touraterre is pleased to announce that its Autumn 2015 workshop will take place in the city of Avignon in the South East of France, from the 6th of September to the 4th of October.
With a first week to design a common project, and three more weeks to build it, we are opening our call for registration to architects and architectural students interested in following a project from the design table to the building site.
Students can join for two or four weeks. The fees include food, materials, and excursions. In accordance to our philosophy we will work using raw earth materials.
TOURATERRE WORKSHOPS :
Touraterre is a group of dedicated Young architects, builders and researchers who share a common passion for raw earth construction. For the fifth year they are organizing an architecture workshop for
European architecture students.
The originality of these workshops resides in the fact that the students design and build their own project out of raw earth during the four weeks of the workshop. The organizational team is composed
of architects, invited professors and volunteers.
ABOUT THE PROJECT:
Every year Touraterre works along various organizations that share their philosophy about life and construction. As such it has worked with an organization hosting homeless people (in 2011), with
an ecological organization (2012), and even recently with a municipality (2015).
This autumn, the organization has been asked to design a public space in the city of Avignon, close to the historic center.
If you want to participate send a motivation e-mail to touraterre@riseup.net.
Hoping to see you in September,
The Touraterre team.
