The Mud and Wood House

The house is designed on the principle of passive solar gain. The large windows in the dining area maximise the light entering the room. The free heat is stored in the thermally massive mud walls and floor. Yes, the floor is earth too, sealed with layer upon layer of boiled linseed oil. The wall lights are moulded directly out of the mud walls.
