The Living Architecture Centre is a school of DIY Eco-Building operated by me, Peter Cowman. I am an architect, a writer, a teacher and an eco-builder.
The LAC provides information and training to people wishing to create their own living architecture.
Living Architecture articulates the vital link which exists between architecture and life. This synthesis of abstract and physical considerations has shown itself in practice to be an ideal means to address many of the demands of modern building design, particularly the architecture of the home.
The Living Architecture Centre offers a wide range of resources for those interested in achieving a sustainably way of life – Articles, Sheltermaker Magazine, LIVE & Distance Learning Courses, Talks, Workshops, Sheltermaker Theatre presentations and a Consultancy Service.
You can also sign up for Sheltermaker, the online magazine which is published every six weeks or so.
You can view video clips about Living Architecture HERE
Sheltermaker Theatre
Sheltermaker Theatre is an educational/entertainment device being developed at the Living Architecture Centre. This facilitates exploration of the emotional aspects of architecture and a more direct engagement with people than is possible through pure teaching.
