Earth bag house
End of day 2. Foundation for the east wall is complete. It is one foot below grade, about eight inches above grade and eighteen inches wide. River rocks and mortar (traditional stuff here) were used for the the foundation.
Fantastic! I have always wondered about alternative and natural building materials especially since I saw a house made from old bottles on HGTV.
