Five Sustainable Eco Building Techniques Provide Natural Holistic Living Environments 





Natural building, or eco building, involves the construction of wood ovens, shelters, barns, and even entire houses using sustainable materials and traditional building methods.

Eco building focuses on creating beautiful, environmentally sustainable homes that are strong enough to stand the test of time, and are created using materials that are usually sourced from the very site that the structure will stand on. Earth, clay, sand, stone, and straw are used in different combinations to form sturdy, breathable structures that provide healthy living environments with minimal damage to the environment.
