Modern Earth Building 2003
24-26 Ekim 2003, Berlin
|
Modern Earth Building 2003 will be presenting a wealth of experiences gained
in earth building in various countries. At the international conference renowned
speakers will be speaking on current issues in earth building. The conference
will be promoting the idea of working together and learning from one another in
an international context. The aim of the conference is to discuss recent and
future developments on earth building, exchange information and enhance
dissemination of earth building. On the international conference we have two
days of conference (24 and 25 October 2003) and one day of excursions (26
October 2003) to actual sites on earthen architecture.
Parallel to the conference you can visit the exhibition "Sustainable
flat construction - future ecological construction". On the exhibition you
will see innovative earthen architecture and you will be informed about new
earth building products.
The conference place is ideal for such an event. It is a church which was
refurbished with ecological building materials. It symbolizes the combination of
sustainability and the converting of an underused church into an ecological
resource and conference centre.
