Simon and Felicity's Straw Mud and Stone Eco-House

Home    Strawbale workshop   Render and Walls    Stonewall   Inside Render  Nearly Finished

The idea: build an environmentally friendly, passive solar house in the hills, with a small ecological footprint

that will keep us warm in winter, cool in summer.

The solution: Strawbale, mudbrick, stone house in the Adelaide hills

The challenge: Keeping on budget, getting trades people to take us seriously, build it in less than 18 months.

Roof is on

Mudbricks arrive
