Natural building techniques teach methods of utilizing the materials at hand to sustainably provide shelter and structure. Different types of structures such as straw bale, cob, and bamboo are suited to unique environments, enabling us to utilize our resources with minimal wastes of materials or energy. Natural building structures are both aesthetically harmonious and practical for the areas in which they are built, due to the conscious selection of materials and the ways in which they are designed.
