About the project

Eco-building at Lagnö Bo cooperative

📝 Detailed information

🏢 About the local organisation

Lagnö Bo's aim is to build a community, for all ages. We want to build a house to suit various life necessities and events, based on community, sustainability and participation with focus on the social part. The house is shaped like a horseshoe and the inner part is a glazed winter garden. The house will be sustainable and contain common areas such as communal kitchen and dining room, areas for meeting and cultural events and 19 cooperative apartments. During the camp we will build the inner wall which is a clay wall built of clay, stones, and clay bricks.

💼 What the programme involves

Manual work on the clay wall and the various parts connected to that. Making clay mixtures, clay bricks and plaster. Other building or garden work connected to the building might also occur.

🏠 Accommodation on site
