Once again, the materials and movments are the key workds for these project. This on theorical level but also taking it literally on the materials research for these piece "Wisdom of land". Part of Marina Tabassum. Materials, Movements and Architecture in Bangladesh
Once again, the LOGISTICS and timings associated with this work, were one of the main constrains to be thought trough the design process. By this reason, instead the construction in loco, the modular pre-fabrication become the solution adopted. Prototyping a vertical layer rammed earth modul was the guarantee to have a perfect and linear connection trough the elements when assembled together but also allowed to work more accurately on the details and shape of the individual module.
