TIERRA STUDIO

flexible wood by dukta

1. We are building the (maybe) wildest straw bale house in the ecosociety "Friland" in Denmark. It is a flowershaped house with a Beechtree as a center to hold ...the roof. 2. We are building it with wooden rafters from the tree to wooden rafters in the walls. In between will be a combination of paper-insulation and strawbales. Inside the walls will be COB. The walls will be clayplastered and the roof will be a living roof with grass and flowers. The walls have different heights all way around, so the roof will be like a fan. A lot of professionals told us we can´t build a house lijke that - but we are doing it anyway 3. We are building everything ourselves. We are trying to use all the best sustainable materials, but a re also willing to compromise when the situation demands it. 4.

We Will be calyplastering in April/may so we will prepare the walls with reed mats and jute fabric and then work with the clay. We are both educated designers, Laila is a ceramic artist and Nikolaj is working with graphic design. We are both teachers at a danish folk high School teaching sustainability and ceramics. We have 3 children on 4, 13 and 18 years. It is at the time not allowed for most foreigners to travel into Denmark. So this is mostly relevant for people already in Denmark or from June or later.
