Film showing the construction of a mudbrick hut with domed roof in Maryborough, central Victoria. The hut sits alongside the Maryborough Centenary Reserve, just off Stoneham Drive.
The hut was constructed during a week long workshop with Melbourne arhitecture students and local sustainability enthusiasts including Bill Mollison. The project was featured in ‘The Owner Builder” issue 5 and was overseen by Nepalese architect, Ramesh Manandhar, who is interviewed in the film.
The soundtrack is intermittent.
