Complete story now playing at • From Soil to Low cost ... Thanks!
This is a long video, with all the efforts and time invested, the house is finally standing, but there are still more miles to achieve with it.
I never had ever planned to build a house ever, not in my dreams as well. But here it is.
This is a timelapse video of the basic home build using the earthbag technique.
Will share more about it in the future.
This is the story of the complete construction of my earthbag house on our farmland. This started in 2020 and it's still in progress, we have learned a lot in the process and we are still in the process.

Earthbags are a type of building material that consists of bags filled with earth or other materials, such as sand, clay, or gravel. They are often used to create walls for buildings and can be an alternative to traditional building materials such as brick, concrete, or wood. Earthbags are relatively inexpensive, easy to construct, and can be a sustainable and environmentally friendly building option.
To construct an earthbag wall, bags filled with a mixture of earth and a stabilizing agent, such as cement or lime, are placed in a row and then tamped down to form a solid, stable wall. The bags can be tied or stitched together to create a continuous wall, and additional rows of bags can be added on top of each other to create a multi-story building. Earthbag walls can be finished with a plaster or stucco coating to create a smooth, durable surface.
Earthbag construction has been used in a variety of applications, including homes, schools, community centers, and disaster relief housing. It is a popular choice in areas where traditional building materials are scarce or expensive, and can be an effective way to build durable, low-cost structures.
One of the main benefits of earthbag construction is its low cost and sustainability. The materials used are readily available and inexpensive, and the technique requires minimal machinery or specialized tools. Earthbag buildings are also highly energy efficient, as the thick walls provide excellent insulation and passive solar heating.
There are some challenges to using earthbag construction, however. The technique requires a lot of manual labor, and the finished product may not have the same level of structural integrity as a traditionally built structure. Additionally, earthbag buildings may not be suitable for areas with high seismic activity or heavy rainfall.
Despite these limitations, earthbag construction has gained popularity in recent years as a viable alternative to traditional building methods. It has been used to construct homes, schools, community centers, and other structures around the world.
