Thank you!

How wonderful and inspiring.

Wow, great work, very inspiring video.

muito bom ver que até os irmãos portugas estão fazendo casas assim. quero construir assim tbm

EVERYTIME!! I WATCH THIS VIDEO. I THINK.....simply AMAZING 💋

This is inspiring! I've been thinkering about cob methods for construction but I think this is a way more efficient building method. Thanks for sharing!!!

Gracias por tu generosidad ❤

Watching this really is getting me pumped up to get started on my earth bag build. I have a 2 acres given to me by my dad that I want a little off grid roundhouse. I'm still in the planning stages and trying to source local materials is proving more difficult than I anticipated.

This was great! I have to admit that my favorite part was when one of the kids decided to just kick back in a box for awhile. :-D The only thing that would make this video even better would be occasional text descriptions overlaid on the video with what's going on. I'd like to know what kind of bags you used? did you have any oopsies that you had to adjust for? was that straight soil going in the bags or did you mix in anything fibrous like grass? and did the bags on the hill side of the house lean right up against the hill? or is there a gap there? This looks like a really great project. It was a lot of fun to watch the video. Thanks!

6 dakika da 6 hafta müthiş..

hello, how did you decide the permission to build such a house from the local administration? did they interfere with you or how is it the local bureaucracy?

Do you have a video on how to do the light and water fixtures?

Thank you very much for showing the development of the project, I would like to know the main part of the foundations, could you explain it to me, since it is already done and what size are the bags.Greetings from the Atacama Desert

Nice job! 😊 Where do you get water for shower, dishwashing, laudry?

Hello i am portuguese. I'd like to know how you waterproof the walls. Thank you

The kid in the box. Genius. Lmao!

This kind of wall can stop almost any size of bullet and RPG..

Greetings from Chile, I would like to congratulate you on your beautiful project, I would also like to ask you, what did you use to prevent the back of the house from getting damp, the one that touches the hill? And does that part of the house get damp? ?, thank you.

Think I'll go with hyperadobe bags. They seem like a lot less work.

thats great. lots of love in those bags! is it easy to get a permit for an earth house in Portugal? Thank You

Unfortunately there are no permits or regulations available at this time in Portugal for earthbag construction. We want to share information about earthbag building, but We cannot and do not advocate for violating building regulations.

Is it possible to build bigger rooms with Earth bag? If so how much bigger can the rooms be before structural issues occur? Love what your doing.. great work.

Of course! The sky, or your imagination is the limit, it’s also possible to build two story buildings! A curved wall is always stronger than a straight one. And when the wall is longer than 3m then you would need to buttress the wall with a 90’ segment, that is or exceeds 1/2 of the height of the wall in length, at least at the bottom of the wall. It can gradually get smaller at the top, as to form a curve or step type feature.. and you would need to do this every 3m or 10 feet. Between the corners of the building.

How does the floor stay dry and how does the wallls not become invaded by insects and rodents?

Every wall is on 80cm deep gravel foundations with a drainpipe in it. So the water can’t creep up the wall. The walls are rendered with lime and sand which is breathing but can’t be penetrated by any insects or mice

If you want to buy bags pay attention to the bottom of the bags as square bottoms lay and render much easier

Hi there, I am also planning on building an earthbag house in Portugal, could you tell me how much would it cost? How much did you spend? I would be very grateful for some information, it's very hard to find anything relevant. Thank you :)
