The Anchorage Strawbale House

A delightful and comfortable strawbale house designed to take advantage of the sun, including:

  • Strawbale construction with lime render inside and out
  • Passive solar design
  • Internal brick walls for extra thermal mass
  • Masonry wood heater built into staircase for passive thermal mass
  • Double-glazed windows constructed from recycled toughened glass doors
  • Polished concrete floors
  • Post and beams from on-site timbers
  • Recycled local timber
  • Tank water and mains connectivity
  • Solar/gas hot water
  • Native garden and grasses
  • Solar electricity

I have also been working on a poured earth shed. This building method can also be viewed on the day.
