The McMorris House

Don and Karen McMorris have built a straw bale/adobe hybrid house with earth plaster inside and outside with paint thinner and linseed oil sealer. The south wall is adobe with passive solar glass, while the other three walls are timber framed with straw bale infill. They have most of the work themselves in fits and spurts over several years.


The roof was done in ferro cement pitched at 5" in 20'.
