CASE STUDIES
These case studies aim to test the medium's capacity, show its uses in context, and provide enjoyment and education. Each case study has the size, private vs public, and a general age suggestion of who could replicate it (alone).
Large scale, private, ages 17+
Landscape Sculpture
This piece of environmental art showcases our individualistic desires to be unique or different. With this path, one can create an angular structure that facilitates the elements within their natural surroundings. Over time the structure will deteriorate and break down, however, no harm will be caused as the plants continue to grow.
Medium scale, public, ages 13+
Beach Firepit
Rammed earth is incredibly fire-resistant and makes the perfect building material for a fire pit. This particular one was done on-site with minimal tools using sub soil containing marine clay a few feet away.
Small scale, residential, ages 3+
Mini Blocks
Fun for all ages! Don’t let the little ones miss out on rammed earth. All you need is an empty plastic chocolate tray and some dirt. Let their hands and fingers to the rest.
