Natural Building Lab accompanies students on their learning journey in times of societal upheaval, enables them to work in dialogue with inter- and transdisciplinary teams, introduces them to academic working techniques and welcomes them as part of a like-minded international network. NBL is in a metaphorical and literal sense a workshop, in which learners and teachers in teams undertake hands-on research, teaching and practice on the border between theory, practice and handwork on the most varying scales all the way up to 1:1.
