The Owner Builder Magazine in Australia has an article about the White Earth Reservation Cordwood Home in Minnesota. There is also an article about Thea Alvin’s lovely stone sculptures, Earthships, stone homes and earth render. This issue was published in 2014 and the PDF file was sent to me with permission to use as desired. I would suggest you check out the cordwood article, the one about the stone house, stonework and the last page of Thea Alvin’s stone sculptures. If you live in Australia there are many natural building adverts and books to peruse.
