This tiny cob and straw bale cabin was built by local artisans as a vacation rental at the Terra Perma eco-resort and village in Harrington, Quebec, Canada.
The thick walls are insulated with straw bales and covered with cob (a mixture of clay, sand, straw, and water) and a natural limestone plaster.
Mat and Danielle from Exploring Alternatives filmed this video tour of the Terrasol mini Earthship-style cabin at the Terra Perma eco-community in Harrington, Quebec, Canada.
The cabin is completely off-grid with a 1000 Watt solar power system, woodstove, in-floor radiant heating, an outhouse, and soon-to-be-installed 3-season rainwater collection system.
It was built with over 200 recycled tires, 400 recycled bottles, and natural materials like cob and wood.
