[QUOTE="Cobber Kain, post: 8205073, member: 170432"] Orientate the windows to the south and get the benifit of natural light. Insulation. I saw a section of a German house wall. Wood framed with void filled with hemp. Then 6" of foam covered with expanded metal and Tirolean finish. "This house does not really need heating" That is what the guide told me. I have a photo of a section of wall and can find if there is interest. Another feature I have see in central Europe is a huge block oftern covered with ornate tiles In the middle is a wood fire . The block acts a a giant heat store. If you have the time go have a look at Czech , Austrian and South German houses. The make us look as though we are in the dark ages. I feature I saw in the Ardennes / France was french double doors fully glazed instead of windows. I guess security would be a concern. This place was close to Charlivile where the Germans came through in 1940 [/QUOTE]
