Matera Arkitektur + Materialer

Vi designer, leverer og bygger biosentrisk arkitektur og samarbeider med byggebransjen for å muliggjøre bedre byggepraksis.

Such an honour to work with the team at @nasjonalmuseet on this new exhibition for @anniehaloba. Walls are @claytec_lehmbaustoffe yosima plaster on Claytec wood fibre plates with stunning texture executed by the technician team. Crisp curved projections are on white clayfix paint. All gorgeous.

Hempcrete block allows hempcrete construction throughout the winter months. Here 12cm blocks are applied on the inside of an insulated timber frame. When plastered with clay the wall becomes an insulated thermal battery able to store and release heat and moisture creating a very stable and healthy internal environment. Fluff on the outside mass on the inside. All breathable. The full wall construction is less than 30cm and easily meets regulatory demands.

Always a pleasure to support like-minded businesses. This weekend at @designerssaturday_oslo Matera supplied hempcrete blocks to the display for @minus_furniture @fjordmoods @bioregion_institute designed by @omhuprojects

Some beautiful new pictures of @house_for_a_forest are coming out. taken by the wonderful @studio.abrakadabra. House for a forest is Norway’s first hempcrete house where Matera began and where our knowledge of the many materials we sell was gathered first hand. Thank you to @claytec_lehmbaustoffe @splitkon @lignatec @binderholzgroup @hamransnekkerverksted @linolie.dk and all of the many collaborators on the project.

Losæter and The Flatbread Society Bakehouse are also featured in the New Nordic exhibition at the National Museum. Matera and Losæter will now collaborate on extending the life of the Flatbread society building. Flatbread meets hempcrete, the bread of building materials. The Losæters volunteer community will begin preparing the site over the coming weeks and from June 16-18th Matera will host an open workshop on hempcrete at the site. Get in touch if you’d like to join. Matthew@matera.no

Still a little hungover from the National Museum party last night, we had great fun this morning installing hempcrete blocks and hemp shiv in the window of @newmovements at @steenogstromoslo. We love these unconventional opportunities to showcase beautiful and sustainable materials. More to come from this collaboration!

Two models and a vitrine of material samples are now on show as part of the New Nordic exhibition at the national museum. Thanks to @nasjonalmuseet for a lovely opening party last night and the honour of being showcased in this beautiful exhibition. Thanks to our collaborator @_uprootedstudio for the stunning work on the model of Multispeices Neighbourhoods. Thanks also to @diasen_official @ekolution @claytec_lehmbaustoffe @hamransnekkerverksted for donating materials and for our ongoing collaborations in bio based material craft.

Very nice kickoff meeting for our @sparebankstiftelsendnb funded project with @losaeter and @bymiljoetaten. We will shortly be advertising for volunteers who are interested in joining us to learn about hempcrete, clay and lime plaster as part of our workshopped restoration of the bakehouse. Work days will be in early may and/or end of June.
