What this blog is about.

All life is a process isn't it?

I want to lower the cost of building modest houses.

I began with with masonry vaulted roofs, from brick domes to vaulted roofs, to groined vaulted roofs (cross vaults).

and have moved on to

-rammed earth

-stone work both dry and mortared

-bamboo

-recycled lumber

-rainwater harvesting

-adobe

-rocket stoves and mass heaters

-lime and clay paints
