| Jandajoy,
I' ve built a hybrid timber pole and plastered straw-bale home set on a steep slope back in Oz.
My brief was I wanted an energy efficient comfortable place , a design set in tune with the local conditions and had to make the mrs happy and have something Thai about it. Not forgetting to take in some pretty decent views along the way
Seemed pretty whacky in concept but it has come out to work reasonably well, with the usual list of " in hindsight stuff".
I will try and dig out some info on pole (timber) designs if u wish. |
