استفاده از الیاف طبیعی در معماری

This paper discusses the role of natural fibers on aligning architectural production, both aesthetically and technologically, with the site’s local culture, economy, natural diversity and geographic singularities. This is a process that requires the association of contemporary and traditional techniques, demanding architects’ creativity and textile engineering support. While contributing to the maintenance of biodiversity, revival of construction techniques and economic development, it may lead to a more sustainable and diverse non-vernacular architecture, that is, erudite architecture.
