In case you're not familiar with cob homes, they are made of clay soil (mud), straw, and sand mixed together to form globs of "cob". This cob material is layered like a piece of pottery/ceramic sculpture. The appeal of cob homes are the organic, free-flowing, artistic designs, these homes are environmentally sustainable because they are made of free and all natural, readily provided materials. For more information on cob homes, go to some of my posts here:

Below are examples of the artistic work people have created using cob to build their homes.
