A cob ecovillage at Korobov farm in Ukraine.

This is the Ukrainian version of cob. It's an ecovillage at Korobov farm in Ukraine. It was built by designer Yuri Ryntovt who has used the same building technique for some high class hotels.

The house is a wooden framework coated with a mixture of clay and straw on laths and then with a final coat of clay and sawdust. It's a similar technique to the English mud and stud homes.
