Many may not realize just how beautiful a cob home can be, but now they can see!

The use of natural materials and thoughtful design elements really make you feel good just looking at it, let alone getting to reside in it.

It’s a one-of-a-kind home, and humans really love this sort of thing.

Aren’t we meant to build and live in quirky and beautiful structures like this?

I like to think so. Here’s the custom oven/fireplace.

There’s no place like home, especially when you designed and built it.

A little bigger than it looks initially, right? It’s 1200-sq.-ft. of cob love. 🙂

    I’ve always loved this type of tiny house, I would like to know how they find the area to build it and around how much something like this costs.

    This is definatley not tiny. I wouldnt even call it small. It’s larger than my 2bd 1ba w/basement. But I must say I love what they did with the colored glass bottles inlaid above kitchen window. Beautiful

    Absolutely stunning! A unique work of art! I absolutely love it. The eyebrow over the window, the whimsically shaped doors, the beautiful wood and cob finishes, the lovely window shapes and configuration. The kitchen is so pretty. I wish we could see where the stair leads and the bathroom. This is an amazing home.
