TERRAFIBRA ARCHITECTURE

The Exhibition TerraFibra Architectures reveals the 40 finalist buildings of the first global award in contemporary earthen and plant fiber-based architectures. Buildings built with rammed earth, poured earth, cob, adobe, wattle and daub, or compressed earth blocks, walls with straw bale insulation or lime-hemp, bamboo frame, reed roofing.

Co-produced by Pavillon de l’Arsenal, amàco, and Les Grands Ateliers, the exhibition and the associated book present these international projects and explain, through a thematic itinerary, the qualities and benefits of these materials and their associated techniques, both ancient or innovative.
Photographs, full-scale prototypes, technical drawings, and samples allow visitors to physically touch these abundant materials, while admiring the creativity of the architectures on display.
