CONTEMPORARY MASONRY DESIGNMasonry is a part of the historical building fabric of virtually every village in the world. At Limaçon Design, our practice has been influenced by different traditions, from Catalan vaulting to Nubian construction. We take the general philosophy that vernacular (local) innovation has the most embedded technical complexity and fitness for local culture and ecologies. By harnessing the intelligence of local construction, we can bring a new level of design intention to climate change resilience.
