Architects Are Using #Mud to Build #Sustainable Homes

" ‘#EarthBuilt’ or '#BreathableHouses' are supposedly #EcoFriendly to produce, because they use readily available, natural materials and building methods. Homes made from mud have been used for thousands of years across many cultures, but they’ve been traditionally created by men.

"In this episode of the ecological alarm clock that is #ExtinctionUpdate, we travel to Mosorin, #Serbia to meet #DraganaKojičić, an architect who for the past 10 years has been developing the #CentreForEarthArchitecture, a group reviving these ancient traditionally male-dominated techniques and teaching younger generations of women the earth built method.

Could this back to basics building method be a #ClimateSolution for the rest of the planet?"

So, this isn't a #Kiln (it is only spec'ed to 700 F), but it could be useful for cooking food.

How To Build Your Own #CobOven – Step-by-Step

Written by Author Cheryl Magyar Published on February 27, 2024

Excerpt: "earth ovens work – and bake well – because the heat generated by burning wood is absorbed into the thermal layer of the oven. Then that radiant heat is evenly released through the air, while conduction (from the contact of the bread dough on the hot bricks) and convection (hot rising air) play a part in the thorough baking process too.

But why would you want to build an earth oven when you already have a place to bake in your kitchen?
Well, you might want to build a cob oven because:

it has the chance to become the centerpiece of your outdoor living space – where family and friends gather to eat well, laugh and create long-lasting memories in nature.
clay is an abundant material to work with.
the wood you burn can be sourced locally, plus it’s renewable.
cob ovens are a low-impact alternative to gas or charcoal.
it gives you the chance to apply your artistic and creative abilities to a functional object.
it promotes self-reliance – you still get to bake, even if the power is out for a prolonged period of time.
food cooked in cob ovens tastes better, you’ll have to try it to find out.
you love pizza, or bread, or baked meat."
