Heringer grew up in Laufen, Bavaria, in the far south of Germany. She studied architecture at
the University of Arts and Industrial Design in Linz, Austria, graduating in 2004. Her interest in
Bangladesh began in 1997 when she spent a year carrying out voluntary work there, specially in the NGO
Dipshikha, where she learned about sustainable development work. There she also founded her main
thought about the most successful strategy, always obtained by trusting the already existing, readily
available resources and to make the best out of them instead of becoming dependent on external
systems.

METI SCHOOL , BANGLADESH
The three hostels - the dragon, the nightingale and the peacock -
aim to show a quite radical example of building simple yet poetic
and humane in a way that it pushes the skills of local craftsmen
onto a new level and leaves the biggest part of the profit with the
community.
The clients and initiators of this project as well as my aim is to
proof that we can create safe, beautiful and humane architecture
with natural building materials, in this case particularly with
bamboo.
