straw-bale home

Amy Warren decided to build a straw-bale home because she had a feeling that it would be “magical” – and she knew it would be sustainable. With the help of friends, she raised her new house from the ground up.

At ecohaus, she found building materials and finishes she could fall in love with. In fact, our American Clay Earth Plaster inspired her to become a professional plasterer, and now she’s applying it for other people who want to add a little magic to their homes.
