Northern Hyperadobe Off Grid Earthen Tiny house (Part 1)

Part 1: A Northern Hyperadobe off-grid Tiny house built to take on all four seasons! Our leading inspiration for building with earth stemmed from the desire to expand beyond the conventional and discover what really is possible if only we take the TIME. This particular version of an earth bag/rammed earth construction was mixed with the surrounding sandy soil along with clay in another area of the property and then stabilized with Portland cement. The walls are about 6’5” high x 13” thick making the wall a great thermal mass. 3-1/2” x 6-3/4” rough sawn timber’s have been placed as rafters for our flat roof/greenhouse floor (getting ahead of ourselves so shhh…) This is a Cheap Build and most of the building materials are harvested as close to the land as you can get (wood is from a local sawmill, the soil from the land, and the cedar tree center post from a local friends back yard), Making this a very eco friendly build as well!
