WEEK 4 – WIP

Base – the base is made up of granite piles, extracted from the nearby mountain and cylindrical shapes carved out to allow the found metal rods to slot in.

(not shown) platform – will be made of manure mixed with dry grass and weeds

(not shown) lattice/wall structure – the lattice will be made from wood collected from the nearest forest area (approx 1.5hours on foot). A mixture of manure and dry grass (adobe) will be used to infill the lattice to create a more permanent structure and increase the insulation. Optionally, in winter, a sheet of canvas or animal skin will be placed over the structure as an extra later of insulation.

(not shown) rope – ropes left by rock climbers will be used to tighten the walls further, preventing it from opening outwards. Additionally, it will also be used to connect the pieces of wood for the lattice.
