“This 3,000-square-foot straw-bale sits on 45 acres. Mr. Sanders built it on spec over five years and sold it to a couple from Manhattan as a weekend house.”

Good plan…

“Mr. Sanders sculptured the staircase from cob, a building material made from sand, straw, water and earth. He used the subsoil of the site. To make the railing, he ran the soil through a sieve, mixed it with linseed oil and burnished it so it looked like leather.”

Nice looking stuff!
