How can we reconnect our habitat to its territory, taking into account its climate, geography, built heritage, and resources (techniques and materials)? And how can we take advantage of this recontextualization to provide architectural solutions to current ecological challenges? To answer these essential questions, Anatomies d'Architecture proposes to approach sustainable construction through an exemplary experiment. The renovation of a traditional Norman house with the unprecedented ambitions of 0% concrete, 0% plastic, and 100% natural materials sourced within a radius of less than 100 km. Hemp insulation, raw earth plaster, chestnut and oak wood frames, reuse of traditional bricks, recycled corks, foundations made from acacia trunks, floors made from reused wooden windows... This book presents construction techniques using materials capable of decarbonizing our buildings and provides all the keys to adopting this approach and duplicating it throughout the territory.
