Kingship Kinglake Natural Building Workshop — Sculpting with HempcreteAre you into natural building techniques and materials? Are you looking to build or create something that’s based more on forms and lines that can be found in nature? Consider yourself ‘hemp-curious’?
Then you should check out our Natural Building Workshop this weekend: Sculpting with Hempcrete.
Hempcrete is an eco-friendly composite building material made from the inner woody core of the hemp plant (hemp hurds), a lime-based binder, and water. Hempcrete is non-toxic, versatile, lightweight, insulating, and mould, fire and infestation-resistant.
Hempcrete’s workability allows for the creation of various forms, from functional pieces like planters to abstract art. Its lightweight nature and ease of shaping make it suitable for both large-scale installations and smaller, intricate designs.
=> If you’re interested in learning more about hempcrete, and how to create unique and beautiful sculptural forms inspired by nature, then this two day Hempcrete Sculpting workshop is for you.
Join Natural Building Architect and Visual Artist, Angel Benson, and Natural Builder and Sculptural Architect, Paul Bongiorno, for this unique hands-on workshop where you’ll learn how to:�
