The first part of the work deals with the possibilities of art to raise awareness of current environmental issues and with the question of how environmental content can be introduced into primary school lessons, especially art lessons. The focus is on the possibilities of introducing this content in the field of architectural design, including the possibilities of presenting such themes through the use of natural materials to create works of art. The use of natural materials in the field of architectural design is also encouraged from a sustainable development perspective, making it worthwhile to introduce them into artistic design. Natural materials are often mentioned as a possibility for creating architectural models, but there are few concrete descriptions of how to work with them.
Therefore, in the second part we experiment with different ways of shaping, gluing, combining and joining natural materials, as well as with other recycled and artificial materials. The research part is thus a collection of results presented as photo documentation of the use and processing, accompanied by descriptions and insights from the handling of the materials. The results were also decisive for the creation of our final model. This model represents a semi-open space designed to reflect a realistic construction method, from the creation of the structure to the addition of complementary elements and the landscaping of the environment in which it stands.
