The technology

The Sandbag House is an alternative technology house. It has a wood and iron skeleton filled with sandbags to form its exterior and a drywall interior making it better insulated than conventional building techniques. This, together with solar water heating, composting and our vegetables all help to reduce our carbon footprint. Because the house has interior dry walls, the house is not the quietest: sound does carry and one does hear each other moving about, with the odd thing (usually a cat) going “bump in the night”.
