About this class
If you are thinking of using clay plaster in your project, but you are unsure how to apply it professionally, then this workshop is the right place for you.
Under the expert guidance of Gabriele Götz, owner of Ziegelei Götz, participants learn well-founded craft techniques that they can apply independently to their own projects.
Clay plaster is valuable and enriching for a variety of reasons:
- Ecological sustainability: Clay is a completely natural, renewable building material with minimal environmental impact, no chemical additives and an excellent ecological balance.
- Room climate optimization: Clay plaster acts as a natural moisture regulator that absorbs excess humidity and releases it again when dry, creating a balanced, healthy living environment.
- Creative expressive options: Thanks to its malleability and various processing techniques, clay offers a wide range of design options for individually designed living spaces.
- Cost-effectiveness: The skills learned enable significant cost savings in renovation and construction projects
Personal guidance from the experienced owner of Ziegelei Götz guarantees authentic first-hand knowledge transfer based on many years of practical experience in the clay building tradition. Networking: The courses offer an ideal platform to get to know like-minded people and exchange ideas about sustainable construction methods.
