The Anchorage Strawbale House 2025

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.
