RESEARCH
small scale, models
Behind DOING is me, a portuguese architect, Nuno Vasconcelos.
After 5 years living and working with multidisciplinary teams in Porto, I moved to Berlin in 2012 where I started to develop my own research about EARTH BUILDING, specially RAMMED EARTH, working with Jörg Depta from Lehmbauwerk.de.
Nowadays, living between Berlin and Portugal, I continue this learning process about raw earth and sustainable construction, passing among others by "BaseHabit" in Austria or the XII World Congress "Terra Lyon 2016" in France. But also doing and experimenting new approaches with raw earth, in different contexts and collaborations, giving special focus to projects with a social, environmental and educational component.
But... forget all about it!
DOING is not about me, is about collaboration to develop and implement projects and ideas.
