“Habib Gonzales has built over 100 strawbale homes. This video looks at two of them.

Straw-bale is an old idea, but modern straw-bale homes are energy efficient, made with natural materials, surprisingly fire resistant and super sound proof as we learned in this tale of two Straw-bale homes. The first belongs to Nora Bumanis, the harpist of the Edmonton Symphony Orchestra (sound proof) and the second is Lance and Wendy Olson’s dream home, an 800(?) sq. ft. net-zero straw-bale home with a view!”
