Synopsis
Strawbale Home Plans Wayne J. Bingham and Colleen Smith Strawbale building experts Wayne J. Bingham and Colleen Smith present 30 unique plans to build a strawbale home, along with stunning photographs that illustrate projects from around the world. A broad range of building types, from small retreats and rural off-the-grid homes to urban houses and commercial buildings are featured. Benefits of strawbale building: It is the healthiest and most energy-saving building option. Results in dramatic reductions on heating and cooling bills. Significantly decreases the risk of allergies from airborne molds, pollens, and toxins. Strawbale houses offer 3 times the fire resistance of conventional construction. Is a green building option, which has been a hot topic in national media., Strawbale Home Plans is a meditative and conscientious exploration of the innumerable reasons to consider straw bale as a viable building material. Environmentally friendly, super insulative, economical, and natural, straw bale can be used to build everything from garden walls and shed roofs to small homes. The vibrant pages of this practical guide are filled with rich photos of organic, fluid, undulating structures pulsating with subtle creativity. Indeed at once a pragmatic construction manual and a philosophical, artistic guidebook, this handbook provides food for the mind and soul.
