This Cob House: Root cellar
http://thiscobhouse.blogspot.com/2012/11/root-cellar.html
Friday, November 30, 2012. We are going to be living in an over sized root cellar as it is, but I want to have a dedicated area for food storage and of course wine. I love the look of this cellar, and am trying to dig up the location and origins of the picture. For now, I'll just credit the source below.

This Cob House: February 2013
http://thiscobhouse.blogspot.com/2013_02_01_archive.html
Wednesday, February 13, 2013. Cargo container specifications and design. My scratch pad for elements of design to incorporate into the cargo containers. Work in progress. 1 Complete modularity with all components able to be broken down and stored into cargo containers for shipping. Like this lloyd-russell ranch house. Would be very cool to make it retractable as well. Although I am now leaning towards an enclosed courtyard, similar to Adam Kalkin's 12 container home. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Suburban Abandon: Regrets of the Dying
http://suburbanabandon.blogspot.com/2013/02/regrets-of-dying.html
Monday, February 4, 2013. Regrets of the Dying. A few years ago, someone posted a story about Bronnie Ware's blog. Post entitled "Regrets of the Dying" on my Facebook feed. Here are the top 5 regrets she encountered while caring for the dying:. 1 I wish I’d had the courage to live a life true to myself, not the life others expected of me. 2 I wish I didn’t work so hard. 3 I wish I’d had the courage to express my feelings. 4 I wish I had stayed in touch with my friends.

This Cob House: Permeable patios and driveways
http://thiscobhouse.blogspot.com/2012/11/permeable-patios-and-driveways.html
Friday, November 30, 2012. Permeable patios and driveways. I was just at a building that used cinder blocks turned on their sides and the holes filled with a gravel. Very attractive and earth friendly. Just posting the picture here for future reference. April 11, 2013 at 1:14 PM. This may be a great idea to do this for a driveway. July 24, 2013 at 2:41 PM. I too am interested in this idea as a driveway. Anyone see any reasons this wouldnt work? July 24, 2013 at 2:42 PM. October 1, 2013 at 10:13 PM.
