Monday, October 28, 2013. It's been a busy season and I haven't taken a picture in months, so here's what the great room looked like this summer. We used fans and a blower-door to hasten the drying the straw-clay mixture, and are currently finishing up the final interior plaster. I guess I have to take some new photos to share, things are really coming together over here on blackwood mountain! Labels: light straw clay. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile.

Saturday, May 18, 2013. Our 7-day Cob workshop at Pickard's Mountain Eco-Institute turned out to be an inspired gathering. It was a joy to spend a week building with everyone. Thank-you students, interns, hosts, cooks! We spent a week building an outdoor cob pizza kitchen and exploring natural building through hands-on experience. Were fortunate to have a skilled photographer attend, so here are a few images that artfully capture some of the week's activity:. Pickards mountain eco institute.

Wednesday, September 4, 2013. Straw clay and Lime plaster. My focus this summer has been on leading the construction of the straw/clay walls and natural finishes for a new house in rural chapel hill. It's been an exciting project to work on, the house is unique in many ways. I'll write more about the process and technical details later when I have a little more time, lime plastering is underway!

Rising Earth: December 2014
http://risingearthbuilding.blogspot.com/2014_12_01_archive.html
Monday, December 8, 2014. It's always satisfying to turn the shaggy straw, mesh, lathe wall into a smooth, uniform, graceful surface. We did a three coat application of natural hydraulic lime plaster with the first coat shot on pneumatically with a mortar sprayer and large air compressor. Successive coats were laid on with hawk and trowel. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile.
