If you want to see if a straw bale house looks like a period home come
to Savernake! We have one that was built last year by Cynric, Erland,
Valencia and me. It was a learning experience. It's rock solid and
weather worthy. Cooler in the summer and warm in the winter, the r value
is up near 40. (That would take a lot of pink stuff in your conventional
home)
There are pictures pictures on the Bjornsborg home page. Take the
Savernake tour. go to www.savernake.org
Cynric is currently building a chapel with straw bales.
Some of my favorite strawbale links are:
