Casa Chica at the Black Range Lodge, featured in issue #17 of The Last Straw. The foundation is part natural stone and part earthbags, and the building is made from straw bales, straw-clay, cob, wattle-and-daub, unmilled timber, stuff like that. Earthen floor, earthen plasters.
This photo is from the Strawbale section.
