A Design Sampler of Straw Bale and Natural Buildings

People often ask The Last Straw for photographs and samples of the types of buildings that use strawbale and natural building methods and materials for sustainable design and construction. We offer these examples and the links to web pages of the people who are involved in the design and/or construction of this type of building, including owner/builders, architects, engineers, design/builders, contractors and groups. We have selected a variety of design styles from around the world to show that strawbale can be used for a wide range of building types and can be simple structures and innovative designs. We welcome suggestions of design styles and building types to include on this page.
