In
the quest for a sustainable world, where local cultures are respected
and celebrated, this website is dedicated to the rediscovery and revival
of traditional building technologies that have proven themselves
over centuries of experience with earthquakes and other natural hazards.
Traditional IS Modern in
those many parts of the globe where pre-modern vernacular buildings
of unfired earth, timber, and masonry have remained standing while
modern buildings of reinforced concrete and steel have fallen.
