OFF THE GRID
- We practice what we preach
- Research and testing of every material and technique makes for long-lasting success
When we build for ourselves, we go deep green. That’s not for everyone. We offer a menu of tested green choices and if you love even one, you’re a green pioneer and part of the solution.
SOLAR / ALTERNATIVE ENERGY SOURCES
Use of solar combines with other energy-conserving measures.
RECLAIMED WINDOWS, DOORS, FLOORING, AND OTHER MATERIALS
We carefully select reclaimed materials for durability, beauty, and cost.
PACKED EARTH FLOORS
No gravel, cement, or machinery. Just clay from the site, natural oils, pigments and hands and feet
LOAD-BEARING STRAW BALE WALLS
No wood, steel, or concrete in these walls. Just straw bales and lime plaster (lime, sand, water).
