Prototype for a sustainable architecture in the Amazon rain forest
(in Portuguese)
After finishing the Arts and Crafts house, I wanted to try more projects in this context. So once I returned to Portugal (December 2011) I gathered a team of people to work on a project that would show how it's posible to work sustainability in construction without spending to much money (or even less then they are already spend building there - as we manage to achieve).
I got back to Manaus (April 2012) to present this prototype for sustainable architecture in this specific area to the NGO - FAS. They got excited about it and chalenged me to come back in July 2012 to present a project of a lodge for the community of Tiririca, and unblock their indecisions of over 2 years on using the budget for that construction they got from FAS.
