Most markedly, the remarks of the owners about how much they love living in their homes is inspirational.
Includes New Mexico building code standards for clay/straw constructions (some states may need homeowner input in recognizing this as a safe method), a bibliography, index, list of builders/architects who are familiar with this method and sources of tools & nontoxic building materials (these last 2 sections are, of course, quite outdated).… (más)
