This was the first straw bale house built in Italy. It's a
timber frame infill with clay plasters on the inside and lime
plaster on the exterior and earthen floors. It was built in 2006
by Stefano Soldati
with the help of British straw bale builders Barbara Jones of
Straw Works
and Bee Rowan of
Straw Build. You can see this home and other straw bale houses
on the
Natural Homes Map. |
