Hello Rikki,Our 6-day workshops are for both profesionals and owner-builders. We do not build a building during our workshops, thus allowing for many techniques to be taught and put to practice (SB infill, earth and lime plaster and earth building) rather than concentrating on getting a building finished. We have generally 2 or 3 professionals (mostly architects) during our workshops and they confirm that it is pleasant to learn in a non professional context and that this does not mean that it is less interesting for them. I consider that both professionals and owner builders need to start from scratch where SB building is concerned. I also find it makes a wonderful blend that is benificial for all concerned.
Our workshops are taught in French. More details on our website. Best regards, André de Bouter La Maison en Paille www.lamaisonenpaille.com France Nitzkin a écrit :
