Embodied architecture and yoga retreat

Exploring spaces within and around you

In a world that often lures us to live externally and digitally, the Embodied Architecture and Yoga retreats offer a healing space to look deep within, rediscover yourself in your inner body space, and perceive the physical spaces around you from a fresh perspective, engaging all your senses. These retreats invite you on a journey of exploring spaces. The spaces within you — your physical body space — and the architectural spaces around you.

Designing and building with earth

Modern use of an ancient material

Earth, one of humanity’s oldest building materials, fascinates us with its simplicity and immense potential for various applications in the construction sector. Earth holds the promise of becoming a central material for creating healthy, environmentally friendly spaces due to its numerous positive qualities. Furthermore, its regional diversity offers endless aesthetic and functional possibilities, sparking our curiosity to explore and innovate.

In the workshops, we are excited to explore the versatility and aesthetics of earth as a building material together. Participants will have the opportunity to experiment with various techniques, focusing on clay plaster and rammed earth construction.
