Straw Bale Homes

THINK WARM. THINK COST EFFECTIVE.

Reduce your day to day running costs and breathe easy with a smaller carbon footprint and cosy thick natural walls. Infinitely flexible design and finishes made simple by the all natural straw bale base and earth render covering.

Straw bales are a natural carbon sink. They are most often a waste by-product of rice, wheat or barley crops, with no feed value and, as such, regularly get tossed on gardens, used as base in stables or burned. However, used as a building material, straw bales offer amazing value. They have off the chart insulation R Values, are breathable, cost effective and flexible.

In the Southern Highlands the advantage of high insulation is a real bonus on the quarterly energy bills. In winter, when temperatures regularly stay in the single digits, a straw bale home offers a warm haven while the heat of a 30+ degree summer afternoon is held at bay by walls that are approximately 450mm thick. With good passive solar design and double glazing, a straw bale home will save tens of thousands in energy bills across its long life.

Then there is the ascetic value of a straw bale home. When teamed with natural renders like clay and lime, straw bales make good sense pocket wise and structurally. Add natural timber, raw bush poles or dressed and oiled, stone and local clay colours, a straw bale home can really express the owner's individuality - naturally.
