Wattle & Daub (Thin Earth Walls)
Wattle & Daub is an earth building technique that's not often talked about these days. It's basically a thin cob wall built between post & beam and woven lattice.
I don't normally recommend wattle & daub for exterior walls unless you live in a tropical climate. The walls are too thin for substantial insulation or thermal mass. But they're quick to build and work great for natural, non-toxic interior walls in any home or building.
