Welcome home, you are in the future!

General description

Imagine…….a post-apocalyptic future, with clouds of dust so thick that you can’t even see the end of your nose….. sub-humans that wabble around, looking for their lost identity…. everything is grey, there is no sun and the world is a boundless land of shadows and memories of a better life that will never come back again….

Distance ourselves…..From the clouds of dust something appears…..buildings…..Skyscrapers are so high that they seem to be the columns of the sky. Glass and steel are everywhere, so technologically advanced than you can’t even imagine. But if you pay attention, you will notice that something is missing…trees!

This is the maximum peak of the human race…..and it is the point where men lost the inner part of their soul, the contact with Nature.

Do you want to live in a world like this? WE DON’T!

That’s why we created a course that can open your eyes about the environmental impact of building materials and give you the possibility to know new technologies that respect the world we live in.

Don’t be blind, give a chance to the future of our planet!

Build responsibly!
