The project utilizes rammed earth construction, which compacts layers of local soil to form durable, thermally efficient walls. This technique reduces reliance on industrial materials and enhances comfort year-round by retaining heat in winter and staying cool in summer. Beyond performance, it reflects a commitment to low-cost, low-impact solutions rooted in place and history.
