Each section is dedicated to one of the three resources, tracing its journey from raw material to building material to architecture.

About TraMod ACADEMY:
TraMod [Tradition + Modernity] is an International academy for studying interactions between tradition and modernity in architecture and design.
Respecting and saving identity, traditions and cultures in one hand and being modern and up-dated in the other hand, cause new generations of architects and designers to have a mixture of tradition and modernity in their architecture, interior design and fashion-industrial design projects.
