Lumassina
Our new headquarter "la Lumassina" is ready!
The structure of the house is a modular double frame of wood filled in with straw bales. The technique is known as GREB and we received precious consultancy from Christophe Benoit from the French association Approche Paille.
The project has been made by our friend Arch. Anna Cavallo, it is realised by us together with local artisans.
The large plot of land surrounding the head quarter will constitute a permanent, applied-research field. It will host many of our prototypes and will offer a long lasting test and evaluation and demonstration field.
Here are some pictures of the building phases and below some pictures of the space we have at our disposal.
