We really recommend you experience living in a strawbale house - especially one designed by us! Vist @strawcottages as soon as you can - don't settle for anything less!.

And we're using these panels for our healthy #zerocarbon designs.
Traditional construction takes time, energy, and rarely goes smoothly. We are rethinking construction for an easier, faster and more sustainable way of building.
