Describing Raymond’s new home explains the names for it. The house is built with natural, non-toxic, reused and local materials. Local in this case means most of the materials were sourced from within 100 miles of the house. The wall system is made of loose straw in a mixture of clay and glue. Kentrel (the first resident), Raymond and others worked for many hours to pack the straw and clay mixture into a wooden framework Block Blast. When the clay dried, the wooden frame was removed to reveal a flat wall that was then plastered with a different type of clay mixture.
