ABSTRACT

This article exposes the basis and method to develop a holistic and deep architectural sustainable vision. “Gaia” needs global solutions for everybody. The technological aspect of solidarity in the use of low-tech designs is to find a common path for all humanity. Nature seeks at all times to develop optimal ways to save resources and energy, while generating an optimal environment for the development of life. Organicity gives life, resistance, and harmony following natural laws. Likewise, natural material-based solutions can improve the quality of our buildings. Doing so, we respect nature with low impact and energy consumption, while maximizing comfort, welfare, and health of users too. Now is the time to use earth, wood, straw, bamboo, and technologies as domes, Mexican vaults, rammed earth, and reciprocal roofs, as illustrated in an official school project.
