'Anna Heringer. Essential Beauty' covers the main works and projects by the German architect, from her buildings in Bangladesh - the METI and DESI schools or the Anandaloy Building -, in China - the bamboo shelters and the Ceramics Museum in Majiayao - and in Africa - an educational campus in Ghana or a kindergarten in Zimbabwe -, to the projects developed in Europe, in which she has incorporated traditional materials and techniques from those countries, such as rammed earth. Under the motto 'Architecture is a tool to improve lives,' Heringer has also impulsed initiatives like the Dipdii Textiles workshop for women in Bangladesh or the Laufen Manifesto for a more humane design culture.
