This is a photo history of my home building project. Click on any picture for a better view. The goal is to build a small, efficient two bedroom home with low maintenance and low ecological impact. It's constructed of Insulated Composite Concrete Forms (ICCF), with hydronic heat in a slab on grade. The forms are a mixture of concrete and post-consumer recycled polystyrene. The property is waterfront acreage on Hood Canal in Washington state.
When I poured the Insulated Composite Concrete Forms, I needed to keep the concrete out of a couple areas, like the area in a wall that will ultimately contain in insert woodstove. These little dams were made of scrap Hardie board.
