Lecture and Workshop Natural Building with Ziggy Liloia
Join Ziggy Liloia for a lecture and workshop exploring natural building methods and materials. With years of experience building with mud and other natural materials, he leads workshops year-round and has designed and constructed numerous homes and structures across the U.S. This lecture will introduce key concepts of building with natural materials—namely clay, straw, wood, and stone—and emphasize the use of locally available resources, energy-efficient design, environmental benefits, and the creative and aesthetic opportunities these materials offer. The lecture will be followed by a hands-on demonstration and workshop, giving participants the chance to work directly with natural materials, better understand related processes, and spark further conversation and interest. Workshop spots are limited and will be filled on a first-come, first-served basis.
Lecture: 11:00 a.m. in GDB 109
Workshop: 1:00 - 3:00 p.m. | Location TBD
