Martin Rauch - Rammed Earth
Rammed earth is a fascinating fusion of low- and high tech, of ancient technology and innovative construction that is increasingly attracting attention. Today, clay has become an important material not only for alternative and ecological applications, but also for established architects whose creative use of this versatile material and its advantageous properties for heating and cooling reveals ever new designs and functions.
In Europe, Martin Rauch is regarded as one of the pioneers of modern technical and creative applications for traditional adobe construction. His oeuvre encompasses buildings, open space and landscape designs in Germany, Britain, Italy, Austria and Switerland, including projects with Herzog & de Meuron and Schneider + Schumacher.
