    The (in)visible traces of the landscape

    The (in)visible traces of the landscape, From housing to matter

    France
    This research questions the (in)visible traces that the extraction of construction materials has in the landscape. An individual house built with local resources interrogates the relationship between the territory and its raw materials. Re-engaging with local materials goes beyond the simple dimension of thermal calculations and environmental. Alternative housing concepts thus establish a contemporary territorial narrative based on a sensitive use of materials and simple construction methods.

    Noi Ortadini Community Garden in Matera

    Noi Ortadini (citizen gardeners): a Community Garden to collectively reconnect with nature in Matera

    Italy
    During lockdown, a biology student who lived on the outskirts of Matera (Italy) started growing vegetables and trees on an abandoned patch of land next to his home. Friends and neighbours joined him to learn about agriculture, socialize and build a compost bin and a gazebo. “Noi Ortadini” (the citizen gardeners) is now an official community garden, offering events and workshops such as gardening, ecosystem restoration, outdoor education for children and debates on climate change and sustainable lifestyles.

    PURE HOME

    PURE HOME - home with nature

    Slovenia
    Nature is the most beautiful. To enjoy her beauty even when you are at home in the house is invaluable. The basic concept of Pure Home is easy construction with wood and hemp (or straw). As if it were to combine the lego cubes and containers. The basic structure is made of wood - in the form of a cube. Except for the essential walls made of hemp / or straw, everything is in the glass. All in all, it consists of wooden joints that make it possible to adjust the home.

    Silos, Catedrales del Campo

    Rural school for the countryside

    Spain
    The continuous migration that has taken place during the last decades from the countryside to the cities has generated negative effects on agriculture and livestock production. Rural areas have seen their opportunities impoverished and their access to basic services limited. The challenge we want to achieve with this project is to encourage migration from the cities to the countryside, to promote a rural society capable of self-sufficiency in which a sustainable economy can develop

    Upcycling of agro- and plastic waste to create conglomerate material protecting rural lifestyle

    Poland
    How can we reuse tons of plastic agricultural waste and create a material that could enrich the aesthetic of our villages? Foil&Soil Mishmash establishes a bridge between material science technology and artistic point of view by forming a unique, nature-based, locally-sourced material for social use. Creating a series of various, public artefacts will help us to stop, relax and rethink how much we depend on the countryside. To be a human means to be the foil and soil of the current times.

With projectors we project visual art in public spaces, which is supposed to lead the general public to a sense of self-satisfaction, better behavior towards our beloved planet and opening their consciousness.
