Announcement

This is a 5 day workshop intended for individuals who are interested in efficient methods of construction that blend Compressed Earth Block construction with modular carpentry panels to allow for a rapid build of a complete home. Our goal is to demonstrate that high quality housing can be built on time scales compressed by a factor of about 20 compared to industry standard construction, while achieving a cost 1/3 that of conventional stick frame construction. Our innovative process involves a swarm build with 48 people, where the house has been designed for a rapid parallel build using simple-to-follow documetation. This workshop is intended for those people who are interested in building a natural home, but who do not want to spend the typical time that it takes to build with rammed earth, cob, or adobe.
