#roundhouse: first window in the bale wall. This still needs a lot of trimming of the straw before it's ready to render, but overall we're quite pleased.
@simon_brooke. Cheers for sustainable construction with straw bales. #sustainableliving, #growyourown, #strawbalebuild, #strawbale.
@Pollinators this is my second #strawbalebuild . I've been living in a straw bale house for thirteen years now, and I'm very pleased with it. It's a very quick and cheap way of building habitable structures.
@simon_brooke. Excellent! Can you share more photographs as your time allows? Thank you for your contribution to the Mastodon universe. The straw bale construction world has interesting connections. For example the foundation to the bale wall, and the bale wall to the sill of the roof framing. #strawbalebuild, #strawbale, #sustainableconstruction, #SustainableConsumption.
