Abitare (temporaneo) e Sostenibile (Temporarily) and Sustainable Living

The scenario that we are facing involves the environmental and climate crisis as well as the social one. Flows of people are moving for various reasons, geopolitical difficulties, disastrous effects of climate change, search for work and / or life opportunities. Resources are slowly running out and we have as a mission a new environmental balance. The raw earth is an ancient material that has its roots in many countries around the world. It has several advantages in the first place the physical properties of the material, easy to work, high capacity for adaptability and with a strong identity. In addition, it has high thermal capac- ities, the massiveness of the masonry ensures the damping of thermal variations between the internal and external environment. The humidity of the internal air is naturally regulated by the vapor permeability of the material, thus ensuring hygrometric and respiratory comfort to the envi- ronments. Secondly, it is very advantageous from an economic point of view, as it is easily used in many parts of the world. It is the natural material par excellence. It is adopted by this research as the perfect answer to the great transformations that are affecting our society. To the environmental and climate crisis, raw earth responds with efficient construction solutions with zero impact. In the background of the research is positioned the social crisis, which can find answers through the rediscovery of traditional techniques, local workers and the use of local resources. The housing crisis, the search for new housing models that can respond promptly to new demands posed by society. The research attempts to propose solutions through the discovery of a material that can also be used in highly innovative smart manufactory processes, in Industry 5.0.
