Updated - as there is no current link to the Australian Earth Covered Buildings book.
Today we made the second step in our commitment to building our first earth covered home. The first was a couple of years ago when we purchased the Australian Earth Covered Buildings book by Sydney Baggs, which after reading much US and European information on the web, gave an excellent Australian perspective of the types and forms of construction, and from their experience as Australia’s preeminent earth covered homes architects, give a great insight into the technology and its benefits in the Australian Climate.
Earth covered homes fascinate me, for reasons which I’ll blog about in the future too!

Your ‘Australian Earth Covered Buildings book by Sydney Baggs’ link is broken, but I would love to hear your thoughts about the $50+ House book. Could you email me when you post them?
