Building My Cob House: Updated Image Slidesow

By February 24, 20126 Comments

I’ve updated my (abbreviated) cob house construction slideshow. This is a great series of images to show folks who are curious about what it is like to build with cob, and to give a look into all aspects of the construction process. The slideshow has been updated to include images of the “new look” of Gobcobatron, including the renovated terracotta tile floor and lime washed walls.

Check it out!

    Hey, great slide show, the space is great. I’m in the process of designing a similar space. Thanks for the detailed pics.

    What advice would you give someone undertaking the same style of a project? Anything you would do different?

    Ivan: My advice would depend largely on where you plan to build. There are indeed many things I would do differently — in fact, I wouldn’t build another fully cob house here in MO again. Our climate is too cold!

    Hi, I just wanted to tell you how awesome your house is. It really gave me some great ideas for the little building that I will be putting up this summer. Thank you for the wonderful inspiration!
