@ericalaeta@ruhr.social @Broadfork@mastodon.green I will share pictures. The lime plaster construction method is used around the world. The earth cob construction method is too. These buildings last for generations.

@ericalaeta@ruhr.social @Broadfork@mastodon.green This interior photograph shows the rectangular wheat straw bales, the wire mesh, and wet brown clay plaster. Timber framing is visible around the door and above the window. The clay plaster is mixed in a tub mixer and then applied by hand. The ingredients are clay from the site, rough sand, wheat straw and water. One label is cob material. The window shows the wall depth when using wheat straw bales for their insulation properties. #cob, #Zone4b
