Lance and Wendy Olson wanted to downsize from their 2,500 square foot home, lower their foot print and build a super energy-efficient dream home from scratch.
Lance spent a few years researching different strategies and features of their planned eco-friendly home and landed on straw bale construction and a feature he was totally enamoured with - rammed Earth walls.
They wanted some expert input so they talked to the SAIT green building folks at SAIT in Calgary, Alberta and they connected him with Habib Gonzalez, a straw bale guru who has built most of the straw bale homes in Western Canada.
We were there in 2016 when they built the home thanks to the help of many volunteers and researchers from SAIT and Habib Gonzalez himself.
Check out our other video "Anatomy of a Straw Bale Dream Home" for a guided tour of all the details.
Then we went back right year later to see how the straw bale home turned out!
It is one of the most innovative green homes we have ever seen. It's loaded with cool artistic features features.

This is our special full tour of the building.
Get ready to be inspired!
