ASES architect Mark Chalom, who has extensive experience in Adobe architecture, brought this conference in NM to our attention. It's so good to hear that the earth is still being used as a building material - does it get any more basic?. https://www.earthusa.org/
Earth USA 2026 is Adobe in Action's 13th International Conference on Architecture & Construction with Earthen Materials. The formal conference will take place from Friday, September 18 to Sunday, September 20, 2026 at the Scottish Rite Center's Alhambra Theater in Santa Fe, New Mexico. Earth USA 2026 indicates a wider field of interest than previous conferences and includes adobe, rammed earth, compressed earth block (CEB) and monolithic adobe (cob). Any material or method that uses clay as a binder is considered.
