Plaster/Stucco : Strawbale
Strawbale construction first began in the United States around 1800. Natural and sustainable construction by definition is not upheld by mediocrity. The details and the choice of the right materials are crucial. The prime objective is to employ a durable plaster with superior breathability and vapor exchange qualities capable of maintaining elasticity. NHL has been used for centuries in similar applications and remains the product of choice for the conscientious strawbale builder.
