Earthship = the eco-house of future?

  • "In 2006 our neighbor Paul, together with friend Joost in Sweden, joined Michael Reynolds' team to build an Earthship hostel.
    After that vacation, he held a presentation with photos of tire stamping and talked about the low-tech design of the Earthship. After that presentation in which Estella and Mirjam were present, we shouted to each other: “We want that in the Netherlands too!” It didn't stop with an idea. We formed a group and the Association of Earth House East Netherlands was founded.
    The province of Overijssel had a subsidy pot for CPO; collective private commissioning. With this we hired Katja van der Valk. She guided us in the research and feasibility phase of our project.
    In 2007-2008 we conducted a feasibility study. This research mapped out the technical, legal and financial preconditions for the realization of approximately 20 earthen houses within a radius of 10 km around Deventer.
    The last of the 23 homes were completed in December 2014. The center house was completed in July 2015. We built 24 homes in 48 months, which is an average of 2 months per home!"

    Even if you purchase a traditional home you can use these ideas on any existing home to make it greener for the next generations. Its knowledge worth learning and sharing, very beautiful Architecture and Greener than the majority of homes in production.

    What i would really like to see is a functional earthship type home incorporating a capable workshop space and a large attached greenhouse. Grid power, to run machinery, and mass walls to absorb noise. Greenhouse opening to a large garden, and a separate greenhouse for compsting. And wood heat with optional cooking capacity.

    The tires are encased in enough adobe mud to prevent off gassing. There’s been 50 years of research in this exact building style and it’s very safe.

    Well the music is certainly inspirational. But I still consider this a typical western enterprise, I.e. educating the rest of the world. A Morrocan / Arab house would have many similar features, but built 500 years ago. Perhaps that is where the architect got thier ideas. Certainly wouldn't be the first time

    It's just so sad that Earthships don't work as they are intended to..tires releasing toxic gasses, houses that are not adapted to the climate and weather they are in...Michael Reynolds Company (Earthship Biotecture) who is literally selling this dream of a house to you..(and he isn't even living in one himself)...obviously passive houses work and are a great opportunity to live sustainably..i just don't think you should advertise Earthships as this universal wonder they just aren't...most of the "Facts" Earthship Biotecture is promising is straight up not scientifically proven and is just said to make money...an actual working Earthship alternative with an actual scientific background without all the esoteric stuff would be great tbh...if anyone knows one please let me know!

      Ive always thought it more logical to use rammed earth in place of the tire error. Most people are unaware also of the benefits of lime over concrete... Any ideas of alternative designs or resourses for more scientificly sound research or information yourself?

      I was very fascinated by earthship houses for a couple years, but eventually came across a few honest reviews of people who had actually lived in them and realized more and more of the difficulties. I think for certain climates they make a little more sense, but not for all.
      I learned more about building science, passive house standards, etc and i think that's more interesting to me.

    • @theuglykwan
      @theuglykwan 6 месяцев назад +1

      I think Reynolds does live in an older model earthship. If tires are a problem you can use something else. I wouldn't use them simply due to the labour needed.
      The principles from earthships can be transferred eg. re-using grey water, rain harvest, storage and purification, passive solar, high insulation, re-using materials, the greenhouse buffer zone, cooling tubes etc.

  • @tubulartuber

    solar orientation is important but 'passive solar' doesn't really work. you are better off making an airtight assembly with super insulation and mechanical ventilation. thankfully these are not 'earth ships' like what most people know (houses dug into hills using toxic tires to construct retaining walls). and wood burning stoves are responsible for at least 30% of air pollution if not more in areas where they are even only uncommon. i don't see how giving yourself and your neighbors an increased risk of cancer and cardiorespiratory diseases is healthy or responsible. and it's frankly completely incorrect that the original earthship design works in every country; it only sort of works in very specific environments and even then it doesn't actually work.
    the cost of mechanical ventilation is actually quite small, and comes with many benefits, such as improved indoor air quality. you can build an airtight and superinsulated structure with the same rammed earth walls if you like, and insulate the exterior with wood fiber insulation.

There are good things and not so good things about most new architectural creations.I lived in one for 7 years.most of the tire construction and aluminum cans are co Reed in adobe mud
