Eco Love: Stunning Cob Homes You'll Love - Chapter I: "The Classic Way"

Hi friends... Today we're going to look at another excellent ecological construction alternative, the cob... In this chapter we will have more classic ideas for cob houses and in the next installment we will cover a more artistic side of this type of construction... A cob house is an earthen structure constructed from a mixture of clay, sand, and straw. Unlike adobe houses, which typically use more straw to hold the structure together, cob houses are built by lumping the mixture together and patting it in place by hand. Cob houses are economically and environmentally sustainable. The materials are low-cost, light, and easily accessible. Cob houses are constructed by layering or sculpting this mixture directly onto a foundation. Walls are built while the material is still wet, with the bottom stiffening as the walls are gradually built upwards. The thick cob walls provide natural insulation and strength.
