The Guba Centre / Swaziland |
The Guba Team in Swaziland has recently gone ahead with the construction of the structures for their centre. The brief to Eco Design Architects was that “the buildings must demonstrate a variety of different eco-building techniques that are replicable within the Swazi community at homestead level using locally sourced materials.??? The green building technologies which have been incorporated are Adobe Construction, Wattle and Daub Construction, Rammed Earth Construction Planted Roofs, Compost Toilets, Moonphase Harvesting of Timber and Renewable Energies (Photovoltaic, Hot water Solar heating, Windpower).
