CobBauge project: Reinventing raw earth construction

Conducted within the research unit BUILDERS Lab, the project CobBauge has revived the traditional technique of bauge, a biosourced material made from raw earth. In collaboration with Franco-British partners, this European project has designed a cob with improved thermal performance and built experimental low-carbon buildings.
