Techniques inspired by historical and Indigenous building methods around the globe have been fused into creative and effective modern buildings, spanning from the humble to the high-end. People are increasingly realizing that by using natural materials like straw and clay, we can make buildings that are better for the people that live in them, the workers that build them, and the planet that we all call home.In a modern application of straw and clay, this straw panel house, the site of the workshop, is being finished with an earthen plaster made with easily available masonry sand and pottery clay. In addition to being a sustainable construction technique, strawbale construction and clay plastering are heritage practices that can connect us more closely with ancestors we may have who used variations of these techniques through time to build and maintain their own homes.BiographyInstructor Emily Wang is a natural builder based in Eastern Massachusetts. She teaches public workshops and helps clients use natural materials to make shelter that takes care of both people and the planet. With a background in engineering and sustainability, she brings a passion for connecting the big ideas to the microscopic workings.
