Mudbrick Architecture is a form of vernacular architectural construction characterized by the use of sun-dried bricks made from a mixture of clay, sand, straw, and water, distinguished by its reliance on locally available materials and its prevalence in arid and semi-arid regions throughout the ancient and traditional built environments.
