Sustainability Spotlight – Think Earth visits Altendorf
Researchers from Think Earth visited Altendorf in Canton Schwyz, to see a multi-storey residential building under construction by project partner Rematter. Visible floor slabs constructed with timber and rammed earth, and walls with visible timber panels or exposed masonry with compressed earth bricks, emphasizing natural materials, affordability, and circularity. Congratulations to our partners at Rematter and all those involved in the planning and realization of this exceptional building.
