Alt:materials
Alternative pathways to resilient recovery

An LA Forum Alt:adena Presentation

Considered ‘alternative’ or ‘green’ methods today, local and on-site materials were used for hundreds of years to build naturally fire-resistant homes that are low in toxics.

The presentations center on rethinking building materials and methods with healthier, eco-friendly interiors, straw bale construction, insulated composite concrete, and SuperAdobe.

Presenters:
