Straw Bale Home

Address

Ventura

Client

Yvon Chouinard

Project Description

California building code adopted straw bale construction in 2019. We utilized a post and beam frame with rice straw bales infill for the exterior walls. The straw bales were a byproduct of the rice industry in Northern California. One of the project goals was to build a superior home while reducing the carbon footprint of the overall project. Another goal was to make it easier for other people in Ventura County to permit and construct straw bale.

Santa Barbara Unified School District

Project Description

This project involved renovating a large second-floor classroom with an attached restroom, including an interior stairwell as the entryway to the classroom.

It also required installing a new four-story structural steel tower in the middle of a historical building, cutting into and re-framing multiple rooftops for access through the building for the elevator tower and onto basement footings, and installing a new elevator and elevator entrances.

“I have always enjoyed working on Santa Barbara Unified School District projects, especially the buildings that were built in the 1920s. Their architecture and design are historical treasures.” – Bill Langford
