Natural Building in Cold & Wet Climates – CE Webinar

Individual course.

Building, remodeling or adding an addition to a home with natural materials in cold weather climates can be scary. Moisture, mold, rot, high energy bills and uncomfortable homes are usually the argument against such walls systems. Join us as we talk with Sigi Koko who is designing and building projects with strawbale and natural plaster to achieve healthy, durable, rot-free and very tight and energy efficient homes in cold wet climates.
