Work is well underway on this prototype home, as we search for better and more balanced ways to build. Features: – Most of the lumber and wood came from the building site and was milled a few feet from the house. – Home is well insulated with straw-bales from a farm in Connecticut. – Natural clay plasters and non-toxic interior finishes. – Reclaimed and second life materials used as much as possible – Highly processed materials minimized – Natural Building methods used in conjunction with modern building science.
