Common Knowledge is a non-profit social enterprise based in the Burren. Common Knowledge shares skills in building, making, mending and growing to the community in order for sustainable change.
Max caught up with Common Knowledge’s co-founder, Harrison Gardner and eco-builder as he speaks to VOICE about how building your home sustainably and naturally can inspire change for the future. Harrison believes that using natural materials in order to build your home is a no-brainer. Blending what you have accessible naturally with traditional building is an approach he preaches.
Harrison Gardner’s Book: ‘Build Your Own: Use what you have to create what you need.’ Is available via his website, at https://www.harrisongardner.net/
