Natural building workshops are the platforms where people understand the significance of Natural Buildings through sensing various materials used, how they are prepared, hands-on experience on indigenous techniques, observe experimentations and completed projects and know about pioneer natural builders from around the world. More than this, participants can connect with other like-minded people through Thannal and learn from their own life experiences about why they have chosen for a natural building.
Workshops are open to everyone regardless of the profession they belong to. Anyone interested can attend the course and learn about the simple methods. We encourage families and kids being a part of this course as it integrates everyone in nature and shows a path to how buildings can be made causing less harm to the environment.
We have workshop for precise objectives with variations in the schedule so as to suite the demands of distinct groups and for clear-cut understanding of the fundamentals of the specific subject.
