Ok it's time for the #strawhouse thread 🧵. Buildings that are already #climatepositive = directly relieve the atmosphere without calculation tricks over lifetime. Straw is a durable passivhaus insulation wall. A agri residue and almost half of it is carbon.
Show me!
26 dwellings, straw insulated social housing in france. Look how the embodied carbon share (tile, metal,...) is used to protect the biomass inside. asparchitecture.fr/projets/reside…

North german centre for sustainable construction in Verden, Germany #NZNB. Highest directly plastered straw insulated building finished already in 2014. We prefabricated straw modules on site in what is now my workplace, a former tank service hall where we show how to do it.
Schelfbauhütte Schwerin, Germany. Very nice retrofits and new buildings on brownfield sites with #straw and their own very interesting bolt-on system. schelfbauhuette.de/index.php/bauu…
Craig White @TweetEco from @agile_homes presented a very intriguing concept for small #straw insulated modules that can be upscaled via "flying factories". The modules can be placed on top of existing buildings.
BTW, this is how it startet in Verden, where we built the 5-storey #Straw house later. This one is made by volunteers, free-hand with clay-plaster on the outside. Its comfy inside in summer and winter, had many meetings there. It shows that you can get very far with some effort.
But you may say, ok - isn't this still conventional and with avoidable emissions?
If you are not afraid of the work, it is also possible for 6000 € - a whole house (Ökodorf Siebenlinden, Club 99). Where a lot was developed for modern strawbale bulding. baubiologie.at/strohballenbau…
No, this is not your typical lazy architecture concrete cube.
Its a #straw house in Chile.
Large truth window (transparent facade) is possible with good compression and a trimmed surface.

Prefabricated facade modules made with timber, #straw, a membrane and preinstalled windows can bring an ugly and inefficient industrial building into the next century. #deepretrofit with #biomass at its best.
Wouldn't that be cool if your kid went to a super-efficient and healthy school building that was not a burden on its climate?

#Bauwende Thread🧵1/xx.
Beginnen wir mit einer ganz unschuldigen Frage: ⏬
Die meisten vermuten wohl, dass✌️ Leute in einem #Einfamilienhaus wohnen?
13 Mio EFH gibt's in 🇩🇪, addieren wir die mit 2 Wohnungen sind es 16 Mio.
Teilen wir das mal durch 80 Mio Einwohner*innen.
Ergibt 5 Leute pro bestehendem 🏡.
Wow, ganz Deutschland?
Merken wir uns mal kurz, dass wir bereits genug Einfamilienhäuser in Deutschland haben, um in einer nicht ungewöhnlichen Familien-/ WG-Größe von etwa 5 Personen, alle Personen in 🇩🇪 in unseren bereits gebauten Einfamilienhäusern (und 2-FH) unterbringen könnten. #Bauwende 🧵3/x

Strohwohnturm by Dirk Scharmer
both sides directly plastered straw bales with clay in wood frame, ventilated larch facade. Excellent size for villages and livable polycentric cities. architekturfuehrer.fnr.de/index.php?id=1…
