Home Using sustainable materials Building with straw bales

One Tree Hill Country Park

Wall made with straw bales

Here we have used straw bales to construct the end wall of this green roof garage.  Straw from the local farm was used and then covered with a lime render, a Perspex panel was left to allow the straw to be seen.  Straw is a fantastic low energy highly insulating building material, we hope to use it more in our future work.
