This is Benji who lives in Campagne, Aquitaine, France at
La Sorga
ecoVillage. His home is a wonderful example of Pattern Language
No.208, 'Gradual Stiffening'. Benji used two layers of old
pullovers [cardigans, jumpers] soaked in a milky solution of lime over a lattice of
woven branches. The outside layer is
a mixture of lime, clay and sand. The final coat is lime, black
soap and linseed oil. On the
inside of the tiny home is earth, straw and horse manure which
does not smell and helps prevent the earthen plaster from
cracking. |
