TiriLab is an initiative and open platform that explores multicultural heritage related to local technologies, gastronomy and culture specifics from rural communities in Thesprotia, northwestern Greece. It is a collaborative effort of collectives and individuals, practitioners and researchers with focus on architecture and territory, local ecologies and technologies, circular economy and sharing models. Our work centres on building techniques, food research and production and territorial research and design through workshops, encounters, research, and built prototypes.
